You're right, it could, and I'd forgotten earlier that the appendix does also mention lax.xfr.dns.icann.org and iad.xfr.dns.icann.org. However, the root servers are the root servers. We all know A through M by heart, and resolvers have their addresses built in and kept up to date. Seems like a useful thing to leverage, if possible. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
