bind-3.2.

   There are no internationalization considerations.

8. Document Changes

8.1 draft version 00 -> 01

      Clean up of references and correction of typos;

      modified Abstract text a little;

      Added explicit warning for replay attacks to the security section;

      Removed the text that hinted on a distinction between a
      key-signing key configured in resolvers and in parent zones.


8.2 draft version 01 -> 02

      Added IANA and Internationalization section.

      Split references into informational and normative.

      Spelling and style corrections.


8.3 draft version 02 -> 03

      Changed the name from KS to KSK, this to prevent confusion with
      NS, DS and other acronyms in DNS.

      In the security section: Rewrote the section so that it does not
      suggest to use a particular type of registry and that it is clear
      that a key registry is only one of the defences possible.

      Spelling and style corrections.


8.4 draft version 03 -> 04

      Text has been made consistent with the statement: 'No special
      meaning should be assigned to the bit not being set.'

      Made explicit that the keytag changes in SIG RR.


8.5 draft version 04 -> 05

      One occurrence of must and one occurrence of should uppercased



Kolkman, et al.         Expires August 18, 2003                 [Page 6]

Internet-Draft     KEY RR Key-Signing Key (KSK) Flag       February 2003


      (RFC2119).

      Reordering of sentences in section 3, so that the point of the bit
      NOT being used in resolving is made directly.

      To make explicit that the KSK is used at key generation and at
      signing time I added the first sentence to section 4.

      Some minor style and spelling corrections.


8.6 draft version 05 -> 06

      References and acronyms where stripped from the Abstract. the
      Introduction and the the Operational Guideline section were
      rewritten in such a way that the draft does not suggest any use of
      the bit in the verification process and that the draft does not
      enforce, but suggests, the use of a key- and zone-signing key.

      Added 'and verification' in the sentence "MUST NOT be used during
      the resolving and verification process" (protocol changes
      section).
