I have had another read through.
In the intro, one of the example uses for EDE is a server returning errors because it has not finished starting up, but there is no EDE code for this case. Re. EDE 0 "other", is it supposed to cover the situation when there are multiple errors, e.g. different authoritative servers have different problems? Re. EDE 5 indeterminate, RFC 4035 says: Indeterminate: An RRset for which the resolver is not able to determine whether the RRset should be signed, as the resolver is not able to obtain the necessary DNSSEC RRs. This can occur when the security-aware resolver is not able to contact security-aware name servers for the relevant zones. Is this not also covered by EDE 9 (DNSKEY missing) and EDE 10 (RRSIG missing)? [ I'm still not convinced "indeterminate" is a coherent validation state... ] Re. EDE 11 no DNSKEY zone bit, why is there a special case for this and not for DNSKEY protocol not equal to 3? Are either of these errors that anyone has seen in the wild? (If so I would love to know how that came to pass!)
