One of my concerns was that adding security features to email to
match the necessary security levels might actually add layers of
complexity for the registrant.
for those using web, or only for those whose means of access is
limited by choice or circumstances to email?
The scenarios I worked through suggested conclusions where APNIC
could be at risk of adding to the members' work effort and possibly
increasing APNIC's support costs by implementing such security
mechanisms in email.
could you explain? the other registries seem to find pgp email
doable. is that not sufficient? is the issue what happens when
you want to go to x.509-based signatures.
i.e. "it will be harder" might gain some sympathy if there was
also a "because ..."
