  also, under the rubrik of:
	"Why not use ENUM"

  I understood that one concern that DUNDi addresses is that the
ITU/incumbent telcos may not want to let you redirect your phone number.

  I am still catching up on things, but I have a basic questions:

  why not use of all ENUM's formats? Just not rooted in the DNS.
  i.e. the queries are DNS queries for things that look like ENUM
       objects, and the replies are DNS replies.

  This may make it very trivial to 
       a) translate this to Rendezvous/LLMNR 
       b) use this transport to transport other things, such as *KEY
	  records?

  Our (Xelerance.com) interest in this protocol is that it seems that
within this protocol one can also express the ability to support IPsec
and/or SRTP (including if you need NAT-T support), and to have the RSA
keys available to support that communication.
