Concerning the assumption of dns-wg about the useless of those tags and the absence of procedures based on them we would like to inform you that we are presently testing some automatic tools based exactly on those tags which we use before actually registering a new direct or inverse domain. Starting from the contained information, each server is queried on properly resolving the query.

Do you mean, you first build the domain object, insert it into the database and then get a list of nameservers out of it, in order to do your querying? And only then you consider the domain configuration ok? If this is the case, why don't you get the NS list from the (soon to be) primary nameserver, and if all is ok then you register the domain itself and the domain object in the database? Or did I miss something? We do this before registering a domain under PT... .artur
