Thought I would pass this along to you guys.   <tongue_n_cheek>I don't how
much you guys like NSI</tongue_n_cheek> but this really takes the cake.
This will delay updates to zone records all across the Internet.  In fact as
it stood just a half hour ago (3:00pm CDT) every zone was misconfigured at
the root servers.

.    1D IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. zone\@nsiregistry.NET. (
edu. 23h59m19s IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. zone\@nsiregistry.net.edu. (
com. 23h23m53s IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. zone\@nsiregistry.net.com. (
net. 23h57m54s IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.net. zone\@nsiregistry.net.net. (
org. 1D IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. zone\@nsiregistry.net.org. (
gov. 1D IN SOA A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. GARY\.BORGOYNE.FED.gov. (

It looks pretty but it doesn't work too well.

Remember distribution can take three days not to mention cache only
nameservers.
