There is *no* need for PI or "otherwise special" addresses for a ccTLD name server.
This is out of the scope of eix-wg, but i do not fully agree: + root servers are globally-critical infrastructure + ccTLD servers are community-critical infrastructure
I have no problems with that. But "critical infrastructure" doesn't need "special addresses". The *root* needs special addresses, because they are hardwired into the clients. Everything else (DNS wise) can be found via DNS, so there's no need for special addresses for ccTLD servers, 2nd-level DNS servers, or whatever.
