Absolutely, there is absolutely nothing preventing to do so
  as long as any of the physical servers behave as the
  "manager" of the given naming-context
Another point, but this is not conformance, is that one have
  to ensure that the 2 (several) physical DSA are well "synchronised".

It's perfectly legal and a very cheap way to provide
  excelent availability and robustness agains any type
  of failure (soft, hard, network)

apparently this is perfect as it contains 4 NSAPS
  1 RFC1006 and 1 X.25 for each physical server

Well, I hope that the probing sites will check their data
for the french master
