Dear All, below is the hostcount for June 2000. The table shows a very slight decrease to a total of around 11,390,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The at domain shows the highest increase for June with approximately 90,000 hosts more than in May. Background information and more statistics are available at http://www.ripe.net/hostcount/ - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - - the January data had to be reused for uk due to problems in the last months with co.uk. - bj had to be removed from the count this month, due to all top level servers denying zone transfers to the collecting machine. - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by running a local count: ad Joan Marc Lauga am Edgar D Danielyan at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy Vasoula Papapetrou cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk Morten Christensen eg Network Operator es Susana Gayo.
