No its not.
uDNS does not embody nor support the eDNS charter. It therefore is an entirely different animal, albiet composed of people who (some would argue) never did uphold the document they signed anyway.
We are eDNS minus those who resigned (only you, so far?). We are discussing whether we want to continue evolving the charter and establishing written operational policies, or to break with the whole thing and start from a different premise. As you are shutting down the eDNS discussion lists tonight, we have established replacements (Folks, email me for details). We are also in the process of replacing those other resources that you are leaving with...
Take care, Ron Kimball for the uDNS council
This is simply not true. You have posted a set of operational rules, currently under discussion, which bear as much resemblance to the charter as a Dog does to a Cat (they're both animals, but that's about it). Further, see my announcement posted just now. The *ENTIRE* set of root servers which made eDNS possible has resigned and will be forming a new coalition at 12:01 AM tomorrow. As such I'd say that the charter is dead and gone, as the people who had to be there to implement it no longer are. -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - The Finest Internet Connectivity http://www.mcs.net/~karl | T1's from $600 monthly to FULL DS-3 Service | 99 Analog numbers, 77 ISDN, http://www.mcs.net/ Voice: [+1 312 803-MCS1 x219]| NOW Serving 56kbps DIGITAL on our analog lines!
