Regarding item K -

This seems like the statement is about to get 
"wrapped around the axle."  Perhaps we need to 
get back to basics, that is, put this in 
engineering terms - the language we speak.

"The root zone's KSK public key management and 
distribution process should be designed to 
minimize the impact on name servers throughout 
the Internet in the event that changes are made 
to the operators involved."

What we are after here (in the DNS WG) is 
reliable (including "smooth") technical 
operations.  What I'm trying to suggest are words 
that avoid dealing with the business and 
political, etc., issues we all know are hanging 
in the air but are beyond the core expertise of 
the WG.  I don't know if my words accomplish 
that, but that's what I'm trying to do.
