The timeline for signing ORG was presented by PIR at the recent ICANN  
meeting in Paris.

   http://par.icann.org/files/paris/RaadDNSSEC.pdf

The estimated timeline expressed that slide would have a signed ORG  
zone containing some DS records by the beginning of next year, with  
full mainstream availability (such that any registrant could use a  
DNSSEC-capable registrar to request a secure delegation) in 2010.
