I agree that verifying addresses is a good idea.
I also agree that Brian deserves help with the DNS, and I'd like to do that, but ...
I don't know what goes into it.
I've never implemented a DNS server. I've seen it done, and realized
pretty quickly that it's where the big boys hang out, so I can only
offer to help with things I know.
To that end: someone please answer these questions -
1. What information must a coordinator send to the ampr.org DNS to
create/modify a listing?
2. Is there a standard entry format for the information a coordinator
sends in, or is it parsed by hand?
3. How much of the unwanted info in the current DNS file(s) can be
removed without consequence?
4. Is it possible for me to reformat the existing files, knowing
little about DNS?
hth.
