So? What REALLY matters is whether the top-level domain (or second-level
domain, as the case may be) is listed with the NIC.

Send mail to SERVICE@SRI-NIC.ARPA and in the Subject: line put
"NETINFO DOMAIN-INFO.TXT".

Again, that criterion is faulty. UUCP maps are not the ultimate authority
on domains. (Although I will cheerfully admit that monstrosities like
cygnet.CYGNETSYSTEMS are utterly bogus..)

The DNS strips trailing periods, so this name is theoretically valid.
