At dnswl.org, we use a heuristic (and manual checks) to derive different
"levels" of management (ie, foo.example.org may or may not be under the
same operational responsibility as bar.example.org). Using
publicsuffix.orgdata would allow us to automate some of that work (I
just have not yet got
around to implement it).
