I'd like to see DNSSEC trialed in the UK. ENUM in the real world will need
DNSSEC availability.

I think it will be unfortunate if the ENUM trials are considered incomplete
for not having a DNSSEC component. Whether we need to have DNSSEC throughout
the trials is more doubtful but if we can encourage some participants to
trial DNSSEC with ENUM I fail to see why this should be not accomodated?
