Who's up for creating a network of new gTLD servers? I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to reconstruct 90% of the com/net zones from publicly available data (http://www.deleteddomains.com/newlist.shtml?cid=11673-11084 would be a good start). Constantly farming for missed zones, and maybe even querying the "real" servers for missing data. The updates would be a day or two behind the "real" zones, but once you got a good number of eyeballs looking to your servers instead of VeriSign's, you could probably convince quite a few registrars to start sending you updates too. I'm sure this breaks many an RFC, and has an unfathomable number of other problems, but I see it this way: we can complain and whine about mismanagement as much as we want, but until there is a viable alternative available their will never be a change. *hops into his fireproof undies* Comments anyone? --- Michael Damm, MIS Department, Irwin Research & Development V: 509.457.5080 x298 F: 509.577.0301 E: [email protected]
