So there is merit in building a distributed look-up system using SA.

Distributed lookup of *what*, though? Can you clarify that part of
your idea? Are you referring to distributed whois queries for a
domain name, to determine its age?

The clever part is that once lots of sites begin using this in their
SA setups, we'll very quickly build up quite an accurate database of
newly-seen domains that's completely independent of any registrar for
a data source.

Ah, ok, that's where I was confused. The proposal is for a distributed network gathering newly-SEEN domain names, rather than newly-REGISTERED domain names.

Thanks for the clarification. I was focusing on the latter.
