In regard of an engineer salary:
all these oh so brilliant folk on the anti-cacheing crusade
should be sentenced to live in a significantly less privileged
country for a year, where dialup ppp costs per megabyte of
international traffic and an engineer's salary is $100-200
per month. we are spoiled brats.
I know many fellows that even earn less than $100 :-(.
In regards of DNS:
Non-authoritative answer:
ietf.org nameserver = ns.ietf.org
ietf.org nameserver = ns.CNRI.Reston.VA.US
Authoritative answers can be found from:
ns.ietf.org internet address = 132.151.1.19
ns.CNRI.Reston.VA.US internet address = 132.151.1.1
rfc2182 ignored, both servers on same backbone, probably
in same site.
This problem sounds very familiar. So, it also happen in
a more privileged country with high paid engineers?
Ah, what a relief!
Anyway, I would like to know more about what the real best current
DNS practices are (no theory please!). Especially, on how do fellows
practicing RFC-2181 (Clarifications to the DNS Specification), RFC-2182
(Selection and Operation of Secondary DNS Servers), dan RFC-2317
(Classless IN-ADDR.ARPA delegation).
For example; how many run a periodic dnswalk; how to handle
lamers; where to keep the record of secondary contacts;
is misusing CNAME a problem or not; how often it happen,
the case where nobody remembers where the archive is; etc.
Please send me comments and especially URLs.
I will add the summary at:

PS:
- I was always wondering for what was the Source Address.
Now, I have got clues! But, I am still wondering on
why a 32 bit (or 128 bit) low level unique identifier is
needed. Does it mean that the Klingons, Ferengis, and
Vulcan have to renumber their advanced network if they
join the FCANN (Federation Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers)?
PPS:
- OK, it is 20 days too late, but try :-)
