<P>Dr. Joe and all,</P>
<P> </P>
<P> Ok, maybe you were the first to bring this issue up. >:)</P>
<P> I agree regarding new TLD's and IDN's. The fact that ICANN
can't seem to manage</P>
<P>the already existing TLD's adaquately, only is a preview on a very small
scale, as to</P>
<P>what the effect will be on Root server queries in the next year of
two. <BR><BR><BR></P>

us remember that a good portion of that 99% of dud queries to the us root are
the net result of the fact ICANN is no longer an exclusive root. Never
was. Now it competes with the chinese, the arabs, one or two scandinavian
countries etc etc etc. <BR><BR>Just wait till you the see the mess icann makes
of the root system with this TLD action. Should be interesting.
Makes the mess I witnessed in europe look like childs play in
comparison.<BR><BR>cheers<BR>joe<BR><BR>

CAIDA study, especially regarding some of the conclusions cited
below:<BR><BR>"The proportion of invalid traffic, i.e., DNS pollution, hitting
the roots is still high, over 99% of the queries should not even be sent to the
root servers. We found an extremely strong correlation both years: the higher
the query rate of a client, the lower the fraction of valid
queries.<BR>Repeated, identical and "referral-not-cached" queries constituted
69% of the total load on the roots during the 2007 observations. We are not in
a position to evaluate the cost of this pollution to the root operators or to
the Internet, nor the cost of cleaning it up. Some sources of this pollution
could be mitigated by DNS operators locally serving common zones. For the March
2008 DITL experiment we will further investigate the patterns of these invalid
queries and identify other ways to reduce the DNS pollution at the
roots."<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
