Hi,

I set up an experimental ECDSAP256SHA256-signed zone
and found that Google Public DNS treats this zone as insecure (ad-bit not set).
Furthermore it doesn’t cache RRs at all. (TTL=0).

$ dig @8.8.8.8 ecdsa.hdais.net +dnssec
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1
;; ANSWER SECTION:
ecdsa.hdais.net.    0    IN    A ...
ecdsa.hdais.net.    0    IN    RRSIG ...


Of course RSASHA256 zones are verified as secure and cached.

$ dig @8.8.8.8 www.hdais.net +dnssec
;; flags: qr rd ra ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1

www.hdais.net.     10800    IN    A    ...
www.hdais.net.     10800    IN    RRSIG ...

I suppose Google Public DNS validator has no ECDSA support yet but
I don’t know why RRs aren't cached.

Any wrong configuration with my ECDSA zone?
