It seems like the TDF is using name servers provided by the data center 
where they rent their servers from. These are the results of an NSLookup 
i did on the TDF domain.

thedocumentfoundation.org. 86400 IN    NS    robotns3.second-ns.com.
thedocumentfoundation.org. 86400 IN    NS    robotns2.second-ns.de.
thedocumentfoundation.org. 86400 IN    NS    ns1.first-ns.de.

I will have to do some more digging when I get back to the USA. I am 
curious though if i have a .com.mt domain now if i can have the 
registrar where i bought the domain from use different name servers then 
they provide. I honestly dont see why it cannot be done so that the TDF 
will have control over the DNS entries for a particular country domain.
