There are currently 344 known Top Level Domains supported

recognize some of the following Top Level Domains. Also,
some of the delegations of the following Top Level Domains
appear to be in dispute. For example, Haiti (.HT) appears to
have some disagreements.

By posting meaningless combinations of letters with no explanation as to
who owns each, any justification of why say, .AFRICA should even be in
existance, or number of domains under each of these, you provide whoever
is reading this mail with very little information anyway. So if you are
GOING to post this junk, at least post something useful.

I keep trying to figure out why you insist on sending these listings to
NANOG. I mean, I can understand some of debates on nameservice
going to NANOG, but this sort of thing is silly. Please, keep your
conquest for Internet root nameserver control on your own lists.
