If a person was able to look up a number i publish into the peering
network, would that not be enough evidence they have executed the GPA.
I see no other way they could get ahold of the current rotating key
without a GPA in place with some member.<br>

<pre wrap="">Since the GPA is executed (and terminated) on a pairwise basis,
the only way one knows that another node is in the trust group
is to actually traverse the peers on a hop-by-hop basis.
For instance, FWD has not executed a GPA with N2Net, but
I can get their node information from netmonks which presumably
has executed the GPA with both of us. The moment the link
between netmonks and N2Net goes down, FWD does not know if the GPA
has been terminated or if there is a network problem.
There were also a couple nodes on the map that were in their own
partition. While they were reporting e164-group data to netmonks,
they probably hadn't executed the GPA with anyone.
Bottom line: for netmonks to release any data obtained from
the e164/dundi-trustgroup, they must release it through an entity
with which they have an active GPA. (The dundi protocol itself
would be a great way to transmit this data.)

You can test and spot problems in a more controlled way, we just have to
determine what it is. It's not that the tool is bad, it's that it's
uncontrolled. What can be done unauthenticated needs to be decided and
that term "specific", ironically, made more specific.
