For those of you who *will* have to troubleshoot inconsistent DNS answers between the two systems, you've now had a "head's up". Especially those who hard code the root data (see the Nanog archives for discussions regarding hard coded root hints files). ;-)
Rodney, I couldn't agree with you more, but the post looked like a pretty poor attempt to stick one at Verisign. Maybe I got the wrong end of the stick.
Its great that the namespace is evolving, but a pity to see it being used as point scoring exercise with the competition. If random ISP Y came on and said that packets would arrive faster through their new BOZOroute engine that controls BGP4 with the force and unlike Cisco based ISP's blah blah.
