	I would definitely like to consider active (and pro-active) use 
of information like this as part of the DNS WG.

	Even if the DNS WG only recommends policy on what should be done 
and the actual implementation of that policy is performed by the RIPE 
NCC (i.e., the DNS WG itself does not actually make active or 
pro-active use of this information), that would be fine by me.


	I think that we'll all agree that the DNS really needs to be 
seriously cleaned up, and if we don't do what we can to help spur 
that process along, then who will?
