With the kind cooperation of Neil Johnson, I've identified nearly 15000 entries in the AMPR.ORG DNS that I feel can go away.
That list is available for review by anonymous FTP from hamradio.ucsd.edu. The file is called "to-be-deleted.txt". I encourage everyone who has a DNS entry to fetch a copy of the file and make sure that we haven't accidently included any entries that need to remain in the DNS.

Brian,
Thanks for your efforts: I'm not a DNS person, but I know that keeping things shipshape is always important,
I am, sorry to say, very puzzled by some of the entries in the file: there are "A" records for such hosts as "ham", "e911", and others that confuse me a lot. Please let me know if these are standard entries which any TLD needs, or if they're special-purpose records for the 44 net. Of course, since they're in the file, they may be errors, and if so, my apologies.
Thanks in advance: I appreciate your help, and I'll share this with the list in case other hams are in the same boat.
73,
Bill, W4EWH
