Authors,

While reviewing this document during AUTH48, please resolve (as necessary) the 
following questions, which are also in the XML file.


1) <!-- [rfced] Please insert any keywords (beyond those that appear in
the title) for use on https://www.rfc-editor.org/search. -->


2) <!-- [rfced] The following sentence appeared in RFC 7958, but we question if
"can be used by [RFC5011]" could be improved. Please review.

Original:
   This document describes one way to establish an
   initial trust anchor that can be used by [RFC5011].

Perhaps:
   This document describes one way to establish an
   initial trust anchor that can be used by the mechanism defined
   in [RFC5011].
-->


3) <!-- [rfced] How may we update the text starting with "but the basic idea.."
to improve clarity?

Original:
   The format of the entity differs in different systems, but
   the basic idea, the decision to trust this entity is made outside of
   the system that relies on it, is common to all the common uses of the
   term "trust anchor".

Perhaps:
   The format of the entity differs in different systems, but
   the basic idea that the decision to trust this entity is made outside of
   the system that relies on it is shared by all the common uses of the
   term "trust anchor".

Or:
   The format of the entity differs in different systems, but
   all common uses of the term "trust anchor" share the basic idea that
   the decision to trust this entity is made outside of the system that
   relies on it.
-->


4) <!-- [rfced] In the second sentence below, would it be helpful to specify
which element is in presentation format? The first sentence mentions two
elements (Zone and TrustAnchor).

Original:
   The Zone element in the TrustAnchor element states to which DNS zone
   this container applies.  The element is in presentation format as
   specified in [RFC1035], including the trailing dot.  The root zone is
   indicated by a single period (.) character without any quotation
   marks.
-->


5) <!-- [rfced] We have a couple of questions about this text:

Original:
   Each KeyDigest element represents the digest of a past, current, or
   potential future DNSKEY record of the zone defined in the Zone
   element.  The values for the elements in the KeyDigest element are
   defined in [RFC4034].  The IANA registries for these values are
   described in [RFC9157].

a) Second sentence above - RFC 4034 mentions "DNSKEY", and we see a number of
values mentioned throughout that document; however, we do not see
"KeyDigest". Will readers know which values/elements in the KeyDigest element
are defined in RFC 4034? Would it be helpful to specify these or point to a
specific section in RFC 4034?

b) Last sentence above - We see several registries mentioned in RFC 9157 (see
notes below). Would it be helpful to specify which registries this sentence
refers to? We see references to RFC 4034 in some of these registries but not
all.

These registry groups are mentioned in Section 4 of RFC 9157:

- "Domain Name System Security (DNSSEC) NextSECure3 (NSEC3) Parameters" 
(https://www.iana.org/assignments/dnssec-nsec3-parameters)
- "DNSSEC Delegation Signer (DS) Resource Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms" 
(https://www.iana.org/assignments/ds-rr-types/)

These registries within the above registry groups are also mentioned:

- DNSSEC NSEC3 Flags
- DNSSEC NSEC3 Hash Algorithms
- DNSSEC NSEC3PARAM Flags
- Digest Algorithms

We also see that Section 3 of RFC 9157 includes a citation to the following
registry in the OLD/NEW text, but we had to look at RFC 8624 to see the name
of the registry:

- [DNSKEY-IANA] - "Domain Name System Security (DNSSEC) Algorithm Numbers" 
(http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-sec-alg-numbers)
-->


6) <!-- [rfced] FYI - A normative reference to the XML specification has been
added because this document contains XML. We placed the citation in the
following sentence in Section 2.3. Please review and let us know if you
prefer a different phrasing or placement.

Original:
   The following is an example of what the trust anchor file might look
   like.

Updated:
   The following is an example of what an XML [W3C.REC-xml11-20060816] document
   for a trust anchor might look like.

Note: For more information, please see the IESG statement on "Guidelines for
the Use of Formal Languages in IETF Specifications"
(https://ietf.org/blog/guidelines-use-formal-languages-ietf-specifications/),
specifically, the following: "The use of a language requires a reference to
the specification for that language. This reference is normative, and needs to
fulfil the usual requirements for normative references (Section 7 of RFC
2026)."
-->


7) <!-- [rfced] Please confirm that "ttime" (rather than "time") is correct 
here.

Original:
   The full public key is only given for the trust anchor that
   does not have a validFrom ttime in the past.
-->


8) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We updated "the one that would have" as follows in these
sentences. Let us know any concerns.

Original:
   The potential
   third record, the one that would have included the key tag 19036, is
   already invalid based on the validUntil attribute's value and is thus
   not part of the trust anchor set.
   ...
   One potential
   second record, the one that would have been based on the key tag
   19036, is already invalid based on the validUntil attribute's value
   and is thus not part of the trust anchor set.
   ...
   The other potential
   second record, the one that would have been based on the key tag
   38696, does not contain the optional publickeyinfo named pattern and
   therefore the DNSKEY record for it cannot be calculated.

Updated:
   A potential
   third record, one that includes the key tag 19036, is
   already invalid based on the validUntil attribute's value and is thus
   not part of the trust anchor set.
   ...
   A potential
   second record, one based on the key tag
   19036, is already invalid based on the validUntil attribute's value
   and is thus not part of the trust anchor set.
   ...
   Another potential
   second record, one based on the key tag
   38696, does not contain the optional publickeyinfo named pattern;
   therefore, the DNSKEY record for it cannot be calculated.
-->


9) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We added <eref> to the URLs in the following sentences,
which means that they are now hyperlinked in the html and pdf outputs. Please
let us know any concerns.

Original:
   The URL for retrieving the set of hashes in the XML file described in
   Section 2 is <https://data.iana.org/root-anchors/root-anchors.xml>.
   ...
   The URL for a detached CMS signature for the XML file is
   <https://data.iana.org/root-anchors/root-anchors.p7s>.
-->


10) <!-- [rfced] In these sentences, "data.iana.org" appears both with and 
without
quotation marks. We updated to use quotation marks for both
instances. Also, should "data.iana.org" be a hyperlink (i.e., use
<eref>)? We see that it resolves to https://www.iana.org/.

Original:
   Currently, the CA used for data.iana.org is well known,
   that is, one that is a WebTrust-accredited CA.  If a system
   retrieving the trust anchors trusts the CA that IANA uses for the
   "data.iana.org" web server, HTTPS SHOULD be used instead of HTTP in
   order to have assurance of data origin.

Updated:
   Currently, the CA used for "data.iana.org" is well known,
   that is, one that is a WebTrust-accredited CA.  If a system
   retrieving the trust anchors trusts the CA that IANA uses for the
   "data.iana.org" web server, HTTPS SHOULD be used instead of HTTP in
   order to have assurance of data origin.
-->


11) <!-- [rfced] Please verify that no IANA actions are needed. For example,
confirm that no action is needed per the following text (e.g., listing
this document as an additional reference for id-mod-dns-resource-record
or marking the registration as obsolete).

Original:
   [RFC7958] defined id-mod-dns-resource-record, value 70, which was
   added to the the "SMI Security for PKIX Module Identifier" registry.
   This document no longer uses that identifier.
-->


12) <!-- [rfced] For the following reference entry, would it be helpful to 
include
the direct URL and date for the practice statement?

Original:
   [DPS]      Root Zone KSK Operator Policy Management Authority,
              "DNSSEC Practice Statement for the Root Zone KSK
              Operator", n.d., <https://www.iana.org/dnssec/procedures>.

Perhaps:
   [DPS]      Root Zone KSK Operator Policy Management Authority,
              "DNSSEC Practice Statement for the Root Zone KSK
              Operator", March 2024,
              <https://www.iana.org/dnssec/procedures/ksk-operator/ksk-
              dps-20240315.html>.
-->


13) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We made a few changes to the list in Appendix A ("Changes
from RFC 7958") to create parallel structure. Let us know any concerns.
-->


14) <!-- [rfced] Sourcecode

a) We see that type="Zone" is used for some sourcecode
elements. This type does not appear on the current list of preferred
values for the type attribute:

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rpc/wiki/doku.php?id=sourcecode-types

Would you like to remove type="Zone"? It is acceptable to leave the "type"
attribute not set. Alternately, would you like to suggest type="Zone" be
considered as as addition to the list? If so, we can submit it for review by
the RPC team.


b) For the RELAX NG schema in Section 2.1, we updated <artwork> to <sourcecode>
with type="rnc". Note that this was used for the RELAX NG schema in RFC 9457.
Let us know any concerns.
-->


15) <!-- [rfced] The following terms are enclosed in <tt> in this document.

id
source
TrustAnchor
validFrom
validUntil

Some of these appear both with and without <tt>. For example, we see both
"TrustAnchor element" (no <tt>) and "<tt>TrustAnchor</tt> element" (with
<tt>).

Also, some elements are enclosed in <tt> (e.g., "<tt>id</tt> element"), but
other elements are not (e.g., "KeyDigest element" and "Zone element").

Please review to ensure the usage of <tt> is correct and consistent. Let us
know if any updates are needed.
-->


16) <!-- [rfced] The following forms used in the document. Would you like to
update to one form, or is the current okay?

trust anchor document vs. trust anchor file

XML document vs. XML file
-->


17) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We have added expansions for the following abbreviations
per Section 3.6 of RFC 7322 ("RFC Style Guide"). Please review each
expansion in the document carefully to ensure correctness.

Pretty Good Privacy (PGP)
Key Signing Key (KSK)
-->


18) <!-- [rfced] Please review the "Inclusive Language" portion of the online 
Style Guide <https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/#inclusive_language>
and let us know if any changes are needed.  Updates of this nature typically
result in more precise language, which is helpful for readers.

Note that our script did not flag any words in particular, but this should 
still be reviewed as a best practice.

Thank you.
