Yesterday's presentations by Alex Le Heux, João Damas and Gert Döring inspired an interesting discussion on IPv6 deployment issues. The session transcript has been published on the main meeting web site and a video archive of the discussion will be made available for download some time next week. Here are some key points from the discussion:

• About one third of TLDs already have IPv6 active for at least one of their nameservers

RIPE DNSSEC training

What it is: The Swedish registy has recently launched a commercial DNS Security
(DNSSEC) service. The Bulgarian registry has DNSSEC operational and expects to release it commercially soon. Representatives from both registries will discuss their experiences and plans.

Why it's important: Registries and registrars who plan to deploy DNSSEC services will benefit
from the presentation and discussion of the deployment experience.

What it is: This session is the public presentation of the work of the Security and
Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC).
