IMO it would be unwise to reference this article in any arguments you make. It could rebound on you very badly. BIND9.9 can do NXDOMAIN rewriting. So presumably ISC thinks this sort of thing is OK now.
Actually, they do not. They only think that if someone should do it, (s)he should do it correctly and (they think) it's better to have the feature in BIND insteat of letting violators to implement it (and usually break it) themselves. I (and many other people) have disagreed with this point in bind-users mailing list.

That's one of reason why I think it's bad feature to have in BIND. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
