yeah, no. i have a lot of data but no obvious way to distill this determination out of it. what i do know is that on day 1 of .PROD, there were a nonzero number of people whose search list processing required an NXDOMAIN for FOO.PROD in order that they eventually find FOO.PROD.EXAMPLE.COM, and that on day 1 of .PROD, there are zero production web services being offered exclusively using names like FOO.PROD. so my proof is only as to nonzero > zero, "for the time being". as to "for a long time to come", i'm extrapolating from .MUSEUM and .BIZ, but either way, basically guessing. vixie _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list dns-operations@lists.dns-oarc.net https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
