There is only way to resolve (hah!) this question, which is to get the stats. My own cache -- which certainly counts as one data-point -- does not currently have .org in it, for example, and it would not have had .edu without Keith. Along the same line, it's not beyond belief to think that a small ISP in (say) France would be able to expire through .com within a two-day TTL window easily, since the majority of the traffic could very well be local mail recipients and sites. I would like to see the stats, please. -- Eric A. Hall http://www.ehsco.com/ Internet Core Protocols http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/coreprot/
