Hi Gabor ! => The decision reached calls for an interim solution to add a referral => mechanism to domain: objects. This would only be used in (TLD) domain: => objects that describe the TLD and point to the authoritative DB that holds => the 2nd and any lower level data. = =Who are working on the referral mechanism? =Is there some info on the net about the current state? Please see: Subj: 2nd draft, minutes of DB-WG meeting at RIPE 25 [ ... ] Action (9) on RIPE NCC (Ambrose Magee, Carol Orange, Daniel Karrenberg), To propose and implement (a.s.ap.) a referral mechanism for TLD domain: objects (only).
