[Pdns-dev] PowerDNS & DNSSEC!

And all these domains are ready to be used in DDoS attacks as described 
to the NTIA in this letter:

http://www.ntia.doc.gov/dns/comments/comment027.pdf

The .ORG officials have refused to respond to questions about whether 
they have NTIA approval to sign .ORG.  

Also, my letter to the NTIA explains several vulnerabilities with
DNSSEC, including how to obtain the private signing key of the registry.  
The letter also debunks the Kaminsky/Vixie DNS security vulnerability
hoax.
