Hi,

Funny. The TTL for NSEC3PARAM was 0 in very early version of
OpenDNSSEC. However, it does not matter what the TTL is: according to
RFC 5155 the record is not used by validators or resolvers.

The standard also does not dictate any values for the NSEC3PARAM TTL,
so we decided to follow the normal TTL rules.

Best regards,
  Matthijs
