Recenlty I came across ORSN <http://www.orsn.net/>. Soonafter I discovered that one of our peers is using their rootzone (and we are forwarding queries to them).
So, the question is: What do you think of this effort? o any members of the group use the ORSN-SERVERS.NET root instead of the traditional one? If so why? If not why?
This effort is undermining the stability of the DNS
Please read RFC 2826
RFC's are still Request For Comments, not Standards, nevertheless anyone can choose to use any infrastructure, rootserver, firewalling policies, routing policies and a whole lot of other politics that that person/organisation whishes to follow. For that matter if someone would setup his/her/it's own RIR and started giving out IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, who is going to stop you? That it won't interoperate with what most of the people on this globe call 'the internet' is another question, but isn't that their problem? Greets, Jeroen
