[ksk-rollover] ICANN board meeting result and the Current status of KSK-Rollover

[Olaf Kolkman]

I agree with Michael, albeit I would phrase it slightly differently:

Rolling the key regularly is a strategic choise and makes a keyroll an operational reality.

How regular (or how frequent) is a tactic. Whether That is yearly, no monthly or once half a decade is a tactic that takes into account some of our learnings.

I would really like to see that strategic position being explicit.

This seems like a bad approach given how that we currently have interest
and opportunity in the roll-over that could catalyze planning for a
second roll.  This does not - and should not - need to be single
threaded.    AFAICT, you're going to know most everything you need to
know a few seconds to a few days after you stop signing the the old key.

So - I suggest you pick a date now.  Start planning for the next roll
now.  If your post analysis shows a problem - adapt and overcome and
adjust the dates if you need to.  It's hard to hit a target if you don't
put it on calendar.

Later, Mike
