With my list-moderator hat on, I want to note that this list is not
the namedroppers list.  The namedroppers list was a list that was
operated on ops.ietf.org, which had (and according to a query I just
issued, still has) as its MX a machine in psg.com.  Some of you may
remember that we attempted to move that list onto the ietf.org
infrastructure, and were not able to do so.  This was partly because
one of the people behind the operation of the list in its old home
were opposed to such a move and were unwilling to co-operate in it.
Both of your moderators lost access to administrative operations on
that list during that period.

Accordingly, the list supporting DNSEXT was changed.  I do not know
the status of the (old) namedroppers list, although I note that the
former archives seem not to work and that the last time I tried to
send mail to the former address the mail apparently disappeared.

I just want to ensure, for the record, that this is clear, since the
current controllers of namedroppers seemed to feel quite strongly that
the control of that list should remain with them.  The DNSEXT list
moderators have no idea whether the namedroppers list is continuing.

Best regards,
A
