+		Source Identity Token
+
+Source Identity Token (SIT) is based in Donald Eastlake 3rd's DNS Cookies[1].
+
+The main differences are that the error code has been dropped and
+that the server cookie doesn't have a fixed length and may be
+missing.
+
+The error code has been dropped because it served no useful purpose
+for us.  If it was to be restored it should be the first element
+of the option.
+
+We extended the server cookie to transmit server time and to include
+a server generated nonce.  The purpose of these is to provide a
+short window of time (1 hour with a 5 minutes of clock skew for
+cluster time) where a previous cookie can be used for and to not
+require the server secret to be updated when it is shared by a
+cluster of servers.  In particular the time of generation needed
+to be passed between servers via the client so that old cookie can
+be rejected.
+
+The option structure is:
+
+	client cookie (64 bits)
+	server cookie (128 bits) broken up into:
+		- nonce (32 bits)
+		- time (32 bits)
+		- hash (64 bits)
+
+The initial requests just sends the client cookie.  If the response
+contains a matching client cookie the entire response is saved and
+sent on the next transaction.  A new server cookie is generated for
+every response.
+
+We are currently using EDNS Experimental code point 65001.  This is
+subject to change.
+
+We have three supported hash method.  AES, HMAC SHA 1 and HMAC SHA 256.
+A cluster of servers needs to choose one of them.
