Servers are 223.5.5.5 and 223.6.6.6

It is not validating. Its support for DNSSEC is incomplete: sometimes when
I dig +dnssec dotat.at I get an unsigned answer. Maybe because my first
query was without +dnssec?

Anyone have a domain that triggers the DS grandparent problem for testing?

The web page says something about them using BGP anycast for speed, but
they don't have any nodes near me. But they do not appear to be aiming
their service at Europeans :-)

ANY queries seem to trigger SERVFAIL.

I am not sure if the occasional slow response is due to rate-limiting or
packet loss.

Tony.
