Except your diagrams quote "a.iana-servers.net" as the NS, which is where the potential for great confusion kicks in. >Anyway if you believe that it could confuse more expert readers No, it confuses the inexpert readers (who ought to be our primary audience - the experts know most of what's in the paper already). >it can be replaced with another, as suggested by Roland.

I think a suitably-chosen example would be much less difficult for the non-experts (they won't go away with the impression that IANA runs everyone's NS). Choosing an example isn't easy (if it was, I'd have suggested one already). In a perfect world we'd have Ripe-NCC set up a dedicated one with the desired characteristics for us. (Something like target-domain.org, with three NS in different parts of the world, none of them on I* networks.) -- Roland Perry
