The summary largely misses the point. Your DNS provider had a major outage (plausibly a DDoS, though they haven't said so outright). DNS queries from many sources were consequently dropped. DNS resolution of your domain was consequently significantly degraded. That's all. > > DNS service at netregistry.net is gradually returning to normal.

I assessed it by making DNS queries from multiple (over 100) locations, almost all of which were previously failing, but a majority are now working. The problem does not appear to be entirely resolved, some locations are still unable to reach netregistry.net nameservers. Speculatively, perhaps this is related to the upcoming open availability of 2LD .au domains, in which case it could be a rather brazen anti-competitive action. https://www.webcentral.au/domain-names/au-domain-name/social/ -- Viktor.
