I wouldn't consider that to be a problem but a benefit. Just because the TSPs registerthe ENUM domains and administer the zone data, does not mean that will keep them from offering a front-end for users/customers. They will be forced to do that for reasons of rationality. Think of the workload if a TSP had a call center up and running just to get everybody's data into the DNS/ENUM-system. Carrier-based ENUM is probably the easiest (maybe not the best) way to protect the privacy of customer data.

BTW: Access to the production system is restricted to the TSPs with officially assigned numering blocks by "Office of Telecommunications and Post Regulation" in Poland.
There is only one "minor" problem with the implementation in Poland: It is Carrier E**M in e164.arpa -richard

Carsten,
The answer is: Yes. We have switched over to production 6 months ago. You missed my presentation in Sophia Antipolis... :)
Every TSP in Poland with assigned numbering block may sign the contract with NASK and start the registration of ENUM domain names in 8.4.e164.arpa (5 EURO/year).
BTW: Access to the production system is restricted to the TSPs with officially assigned numering blocks by "Office of Telecommunications and Post Regulation" in Poland. We also have the "testing" system, so everybody (not only TSPs) can test the full functionality. The only difference is that we do not export domain names to zone file from the "testing" system.
Andrzej.

Hi Andrzej,
thanks for the link - on p. 4 it reads: "Production registry launch: May 19, 2004".
Did I completely miss a according announcement on all of my ENUM related lists (and there are some! ;-) or did NASK switch over to production in absolute silence?
Best,
-C.
