Not only is this a very good point, but it doesn't just apply at the SLD level. ICANN will be selling vanity TLD's someday soon, and it'll be necessary to think about www.doesnotexistatall.ebay and .amazon and .google and so forth. Rewriting NXDOMAIN under *any* zone cut, not just the SLD zone cut, could harm a domain owner. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
