The arin.net zone and in particular <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.arin.net">www.arin.net</a> does not seem to be
DNS Sec signed. It would be good for ARIN to demonstrate their
leadership in the Internet technical community and sign their
forward DNS zone, arin.net. As an example both Lacnic and RIPE have
signed their forward zones.<br>
<br>
If this means changing DNS registrars, then please do so.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<span style="font-family:

We will add this additional feature to a planned upgrade to our
existing DNSSEC signing services and roll out signed forward zones
that ARIN is authoritative for by Q2 of 2014. This suggestion will
remain open.<span style="font-family:Helvetica;
