Thanks Francis.Dupont at inria.fr PS: I apologize but I was at a (very fine) summer school without decent connections... PS for the NCC: we need some copies of the Piet's document.

A 192.106.195.1 As you can see one of the servers (a secondary at the moment, may become the primary in the future) has the same name of the whole domain.

The concern (spawned by the situation in Lebanon) is that when first starting it is difficult to find a registrar acceptable to the community within the country and this could delay things very much. The RIPE NCC was asked and accepted to offer a temporary TLD registry service for start up TLDs in and around Europe as necessary. The procedure would be to wait for about a dozen registrations and then have the registered organisations agree on a local registrar. I hereby offer this service whenever you may think it is appropriate. Please note that we still feel that having a local registrar accepted by the local community is much preferrable to an external registrar. This offer is intended only to speed up the creation and population of new TLDs where necessary and appropriate. Regards Daniel From rv at deins.informatik.uni-dortmund.de Tue Sep 28 10:02:41 1993 From: rv at deins.informatik.uni-dortmund.de (Ruediger Volk) Date: Tue, 28 Sep 1993 10:02:41 +0100 Subject: two Mediterrean TLDs dropped!??? Message-ID: <644.749206961@seins.Informatik.Uni-Dortmund.DE> Dear colleagues, I'm surprised to find that the top level domain names CY and GR (for Greece and Cyprus) have been dropped from the most recent root zone (Serial 930927 as available by FTP from rs.InterNIC.net). While all of the master servers for those TLDs - with the exception of NS.EU.NET - seem still to carry those two zones, root server NS.INTERNIC.NET does not delegate CY and GR anymore (see logs from checking with dig and host below). Checking the InterNIC whois shows that the TLD entries have been changed yesterday; probably that update sunk CY and GR as collateral damage:-) Please correct the root zone immediately and take action to have the broken zone replaced on all "infected" root servers. As of the time of sending this message serial 930927 had found it's way to NS.INTERNIC.NET, C.NYSER.NET, TERP.UMD.EDU, NS.NASA.GOV, and NS.NIC.DDN.MIL (AOS.ARL.ARMY.MIL still has 930924, NIC.NORDU.NET is still at 930922, and KAVA.NISC.SRI.COM is not responding).
