There's an organization I'm involved with (I'm not naming them because
I don't know whether they'd mind) which uses them. I have read access
to their DNS zone files; a quick grep makes me think they have about
122 SSHFP records in place. Here's a count of <alg,fptype> pairs from
them (counts in the first column; I assume the second column is alg and
the third is fptype, but that's inference on my part):
21 1 1
15 1 2
16 2 1
10 2 2
16 3 1
16 3 2
14 4 1
14 4 2
I suspect these are purely server-side, but that is just a suspicion.
