SNIP
I think the easiest solution for those domains not being able to be owned why not point the domains to the TDF name servers and that way the TDF will have control over the DNS entries even if the domain isnt owned by the TDF?

Well, someone will have to own them. But having your owned domain name point to someone else's owned domain, might not be either able to be done or not quite legal. I know that if I create a domain with my registration service, they will not let me point it to any domain that is not my own. [Or not make it easy for someone to do it, since I did not see how on their site].

Does TDF own a dedicated IP address and DNS server reference IP address that belongs to them alone? If so, maybe it could happen with your description.



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.
