that's going to happen as a result is that there will be pressure toward lower ttl's. and i further agree with daniel that lower ttl's would be bad. so, let's increase dynamicism of domain addition, but let's please not also increase dynamicism of delegation change and domain deletion.
What would be your suggestion to achieve the desired effect that many seek by lower TTL's, which is changing A records to point to available, lower load servers at different times? I did read the point that lower TTL's should only be used when appropriate but if most high-traffic sites use low TTL's, the point about the rest is moot. (with the exception of the root-servers) The load will be seen on ISP resolvers, specially on consumer networks. Pete
