Howard, your suggested list looks fine to me.

One thing that I think could/should be added to the list is getting a root key repository outside the USA. Suppose US airspace gets closed down. Or immigration policies make it impractical for foreigners to serve as TCRs.

A KSK roll is probably out of scope though -- it should be a routine if infrequent event -- unless it involves a change of algorithm or key length.

I assume that RZERC is not going to do any work on whatever ends up on the list we compile. Until of course someone approaches us with a proposal that’s in scope for RZERC.
