Keep or drop? Michael suggests either way <br>
means work for him. <br>
If I recall rightly, sf-lug.org is the <br>
canonical domain name. sflug.org (and <br>
sflug.com and sflug.net) are there as <br>
a matter of convenience for possible <br>
spelling confusion (e.g. someone looking <br>
for a lug in san francisco). <br>

So ... these are non-canonical. Doesn't particularly matter to me
if
<br>
they're kept or dropped, but each such action ends up involving a
fair
<br>
bit 'o work on my end. So ... don't be willy-nilly doing
drops/adds.
<br>
If I drop 'em from "my" infrastructure (and DNS slaves, etc.) - a
fair
<br>
bit 'o work, I may not be willing to readd them (which would be
yet
<br>
again a fair bit 'o work). And when would I drop 'em from "my"
<br>
infrastructure? Anytime after registrar DNS delegation is no
longer
<br>
functioning - at that point the domains become non-functional and
much
<br>
more of a liability and pain than anything else.
