TSIG/TKEY:

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4602 -

I designed this one to support various TSIG/TKEY methods, and in fact I 
have some local code that uses a GSSAPI wrapper to do 
Kerberos-authenticated TSIG updates (as per Windows 2000). I even wrote 
a DNS server proxy that would take Kerberos-authenticated requests, 
re-sign them as plain HMAC TSIG and forward them to another DNS server; 
then bind 9.8 came out and obsoleted my need for the code, hence the 
drop off in interest.

DNSSEC:

Also:

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4603 - round-trip unknown RR types

There isn't really much that needs doing AFAICT. I just find the whole
thing a bit dis-spiriting (which is my problem! ;o)
