So...

A former co-location customer has a domain expired-but-not-deleted that
has host records in use as DNS servers by domains in multiple TLDs (CNO,
CA, BIZ).  Glue records *are* still being served by *.gtld-servers.net,
though NS records for the domain itself are not.  One host record was
the co-located box, and another was an extra IP address bound to our
DNS server (so he could have ns2.example.com without co-locating an
extra server).

Some of this customers hosting customers have agreed to move over to
us, but it may take a little while to get the admin contact email
addresses updated at the various registrars, since they're currently
at a domain which is expired.  In the mean time, what happens to the
host records for a domain once the domain itself has been deleted from
the registry?  I'm concerned about:

 - what'll happen with DNS for the domains referring to those hosts,
 - how to manage those hosts once the domain is gone (i.e. how to get
   them off our IP addresses)

Thoughts?
