Re: [dns-wg] When did ns-v6.ripe.net become a CNAME?

Can anyone say when ns-v6.ripe.net became a CNAME (target ns.ripe.net), which makes it a rather bad idea to have an NS record pointing to it?

The cname was introduced in March 2012. It has been corrected. Apologies for the inconvenience. Best regards, Romeo

We (due credit: Tony Finch) have just discovered that some strange resolving glitches were due to 0.3.6.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa having such an NS record. The Janet NOC have been informed and hopefully will fix.
