DNS looking glasses, in much the same way that we use web-form based BGP or traceroute looking glasses today.
Open resolvers are far better then looking glasses to assess the state of DNS, and we are campaigning against them. You can't have it both ways. 8-(
It is not as good as an open resolver but maybe IEN116 nameservers (the old port 42 nameserver) could do too but maybe some windows boxes would break. Originally the port 42 nameserver was left for dying but with AXFR gone and open resolvers gone it might be a good idea to give them a revival.
