Isn't the recent political cruft and cross-posting (well, multiple recipients) with isocnz-l, which, presumably, many of us get anyway somewhat off-charter for this list? If I'm being anal, please tell me - but I'd really like this list to stay away from the usually isocnz-l type flame wars. If we allow this list to sink to the level of others, it's usefulness will be greatly reduced and the possibility of fragmentation becomes greater... -cw (looking now for the asbestos suit...) --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Yaay! The voice of reason.
This list is here to discuss operational network issues and beer (not
necessarily in that order). 2Day's personal issues with Domainz have been
well documented elsewhere and it's simply annoying to see them being
rehashed here.
There was a reasonable question at the beginning of the tirade, which was
whether there were any architectural suggestions which could be discussed
in the NZNOG list to do with the domain registration process.
I would like to see a whois server provisioned somewhere, so I can query
(preferably in a RIPE-181 kind of a way) a subzone of the nz tld and get
contact information...
It's possible that the APNIC db will support the domain: records, in which
case that's potentially a place that this information could be published.
Something for domainz to think about?

I can probably provide something like that if people are willing, except it would require the cooperation of domainz as they have all the data. Oh, and if it's something I provide, it'll be done when its done, and not before then. In theory its a simple enough little script to talk to a database. -Chris P.S.
