[Chapter-delegates] dnssec as a solution to dns poisoning the national dns infrastructure (.ro)

[borka at e5.ijs.si]

Thanks Ed  for the information.
We at ISOC SI are aware and I use any opportunity to express
my worry about the missing DNSSEC in Slovenia. Last time
during the ION ISOC conference in Ljubljana, October 19th  in  my
introductory talk.

However, the action must be taken by state owned Academic Network ARNES - 
the maintainer and holder of the TLD .SI, provider of IP services for cca 
50% of IP networks in Slovenia, including the whole governmental, health, 
cultural, education and research sector.

With regards,



Borka
