I've been looking at the discussion of the possible ALAC statement on the KSK rollover plan at https://community.icann.org/x/dw28B

I'm thinking a shorter, direct statement is needed. I posted this on the wiki page:

---- The ALAC understands the need for proceeding with the Root KSK Rollover. However, the ALAC remains concerned about the lack of clarity regarding the number of DNS resolvers not yet ready for the Root KSK rollover on October 2018 and the potential impact of disruption of Internet services by the users of such DNS resolvers.

The ALAC therefore urges ICANN to raise awareness of the Root KSK Rollover in as many ways possible: via interviews to media organisations that covered the postponent of the KSK Rollover in October 2017, via presentations at ICT/Internet conferences and having online informational materials that can be shared with the global Internet community.

Also, it is important that information about the KSK Rollover be developed for Internet end users (in the 6 UN languages) on - how to check whether the DNS they use is ready for the KSK Rollover. - what to do if their DNS is NOT ready for the KSK Rollover.

The ALAC welcomes regular updates from ICANN on their KSK Rollover preparations and developments before October 2018.
