Re: more on VeriSign to revive redirect service

[Leo Bicknell <bicknell () ufp org>]

What I think will be interesting is who has the bind patch this
time around.  The first time many companies didn't deploy the bind
patch for reasons ranging from taking a few days to study the impact
to not being able to deploy new software on their nameservers that
quickly to not being able to get management buy in on blocking
wildcard records.

If Verisign turns the "service" back on without ICANN approval I
expect a much larger number of people, and perhaps some larger
networks to implement the bind patch this time around.

It's unfortunate, as this is not the right way to run a network.
When left with no choice, engineers will work around any problem.
