Ok, so I have a presentation proposal for IEPG - the DNS Violations
project. I will present the weird DNS stuff in the DNS we have found so far
and the project itself. (Please note that I have also submitted this to
DNS-OARC and maybe RIPE 74 DNS WG, as I suspect there will be less overlap
than usual).
Cheers,
Ondřej
