slides are at:
http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/np/DISI//Talks/0105_DISI

Questions:

Q: Why don't you use IPv6?
A: Because we want to gain experience first.

Q: What about the 192.168.?
A: -XXX-

Q: What can an end user do to make his ISP secure their zone?
A: We want to convince the ISP's to deploy this.

Q: What kind of public key system used?
A: RSA is recommended, in theory all protocol can be used in parallel. But
to get real success we have to choose one. That probably will be RSA.

Q: How easily can we go to another encryption protocol, if for example one
encryption scheme gets cracked.
A: Depending on how long signatures are valid, a change of the protocol
can be done within 1 day. But this depends on a lot of parameters.

Q: Is there enough experience yet to determine how much effort it is to do
actual implementation of this.
A: Takes more CPU power for signing. Packet sizes grow.
