But the information does contain personal information,
Ok, lets take an example:-
The .co.nz zone file has more than a few resource records in it. Which records in particular contain the "personal information" you speak about?
The zone files don't in themselves contain "personal information", at least by my reading of the definition in the Privacy Act: ``Personal information'' means information about an identifiable individual; and includes information contained in any register of deaths kept under the Births and Deaths Registration Act 1951 But the registration details do, and arguably, the zone file data is a key to that information. I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that privacy and commercial sensitivity concerns be respected when handling such information. And Peter, if you're so keen on examples, how about some examples of the sorts of things you actually want to achieve by having zone file data? Perhaps there are other ways of achieving the same thing without having to handle a complete list. -- don --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
