[Dnssec-trigger] does everything have to be so technical?

It is because of DNS.  Some users are discussing DNS internals and if
you do not know that base internet protocol well (even if you know Linux
and programming) then it can be hard to follow.  The users are
discussing this because the program must be tested :-)

Yes, that is the idea.  But I created it recently, we are at 0.6, and
some field-testing of this new toy is required.  So, it is very nice to
get informed reports.

I would appreciate if you would use dnssec-trigger.  Understand we are
in an experimental phase.  If you encounter oddness, please give a
report (and technical details, logs, and system information is just the
thing).  Or if it just works, then that report also helps know how good
it works.

What jargon would you like explained?  The user-interface would be the
first to want to explain.  (But understand some of the 'probe errors' in
the probe results will contain DNS protocol things).

Best regards,
   Wouter
