If dlv.isc.org is an unknown actor to a DNSSEC-signed TLD, they indeed
have a big problem! 

The best proof that there was *no* "due diligence" is that on the very
own Web site of ".pr", they still publish the old key
<http://dnssec.nic.pr/serverconf.php>. Can you blame DLV, ISC or an
unknown actor for that?

I fully agree with Paul Wouters here: the responsability of a TLD
manager is to make sure it works. Not to blindly follow a
procedure. When you deploy a new name server, you test it from many
places, you don't just publish the route with BGP, you test with many
unknown actors that it does work.

Currently, almost no one (outside of this mailing list) uses
DNSSEC. Yet, you say that there are people in this very small
community that are not aware of dlv.isc.org and not aware that it
mirrors ITAR? Come on.

There is today only one big DLV registry. If you know others, please
inform the community, it is an important thing to know.
