I hope that the dns email robot still remains because it is a very handy
convenient way if you are near a server system without X-windows or if you
have to make several entries at once.
It just works quicker and I have a record of it.

There is an
old email robot that is available to your regional
address coordinator, or you may send your requests to me.
We hope to have the DNS portion of the portal available in some weeks
but there is a question of how to transition from the old robot to
the new portal DNS that has yet to be settled.
Will there be another mechanism to
update the DNS entries besides the
portal? Our local backend is feeding our DNS updates on a daily basis
by email. We need a proper replacement if the email robot will be turned
off.
The changeover may require everyone to re-enter
their DNS entries at
the portal unless we can come up with a better way of doing it. The
problem is that the existing DNS records are filled with obsolete and
incorrect entries so we can't simply grandfather all the old records
into the new system.
A cleanup of the
ampr.org zone would be very nice. Are there
any
offical rules how the records should look like (e.g. each A-record
needs to include [*.]<callsign>.ampr.org) in future? Of course we
should keep the experimental character of amateur radio in mind...
Currently we have some nice and useful "exceptions" in the zone file.
