 and<br />=0D
&gt; the Middle East.<br />=0D
&gt;<br />=0D
&gt; There was an attempt by UNIDT to start a new root system called the<br=

&gt; United-Root. Attempts by Ankara to test this root on l.public-root.net=
 at<br />=0D
&gt; 195.214.191.125 resulted in a fracturing of the public-root network.<b=

&gt;<br />=0D
&gt; The Ankara root injected a number of older records into the DNS result=

&gt; in false answers to queries. Ankara was also listing as root servers s=
ome<br />=0D
&gt; DNS that pointed back to ICANN data and did not resolve the Public-Roo=

&gt; This was very unprofessional behavior on behalf of UNIDT resulting in =
a<br />=0D
&gt; serious violation of their contractual obligations to the Public-Root.=
