Nope. VSGN - A, J ISI/EP - B Cogent - C UMD - D NASA - E ISC - F DISA - G USArmy - H Autonomica - I (se) RIPE - K (nl) ICANN - L WIDE - M (jp) ISC controls -one- instance. With anycast, they have lots of copies of "F", but ISC does not sponser any of the other operators or their operations.
You're probably confused that ROOT-SERVERS.NET. != GTLD-SERVERS.NET. The latter hosts COM. and NET. and is run exclusively by VeriSign. -- -- Todd Vierling <tv () duh org> <tv () pobox com>
