I agree that the Internic should check nameservers before putting up a domain, even though it's more resource intensive. In addition to controlling speculators, it might just prevent or at least detect honest mistakes.
The CA-Domain registration authority used to do this but I don't think they do it anymore.
While they're at it, I should be able to NAK a registration or domain modification so that it is cancelled if I don't want it on my nameservers.

Registration/delegation of domains here (i.e. com.au, net.au) requires the servers to be functional beforehand ... they are checked at form submission ... of course you can always pull it down later ... Damien
