I'll second that; CDNs are a constant pain for me when I'm doing address
lookups.  A list of them would make life a lot easier for a bunch of
different investigative processes. 

If there isn't one right now, I think I could get off my tuchas and
start maintaining one if anyone's interested in pitching in.

Actually, a list of CDNs would be very handy.  I harvest botnets and
fast flux hosts out of passive dns, and some of the heuristics used to
identify them are similar to what CDNs look like.

Having a decent list of CDN effective top level domains alone would be
useful for redacting those hosts.

to be as useful as it looks. 

A lost of CDN "DC nodes" is not possible. Why do you care about such a thing anyway?
