I'm not on SAAG and don't have the time to add another mail list...

My one recommendation is, if they want to assign this a DNSSEC security
algorithm number, propose that in a separate draft akin to what's in RFCs
5155, 5702, 5933, 6605 - or as seen in the DNS Security Algorithm Numbers
registry at IANA:

http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-sec-alg-numbers/dns-sec-alg-numbers.xht
ml#dns-sec-alg-numbers-1

"We don't need no stinkin' crypto talk on DNSOP!"  DNSSEC is not wedded to
any kind of cryptography except the "working" kind.
