.hk and .cn ccTLD servers

There are now 11 DNS servers for the .hk ccTLD which are placed in HK, Taiwan, Australia and USA. We still have 2 more servers to use before resorting to anycast technology for developing .hk server instances in other places.

Due to the increased business communications between HK and China and considering that Hong Kong is part of China, it will be beneficial to both HK and China if one set of .hk ccTLD DNS be located in mainland China. Likewise, HK can consider to host one set of .cn ccTLD server. At present, there are 6 sets of .cn ccTLD DNS in mainland China so at least there is a chance of setting up .cn ccTLD DNS in HK.

I have made the proposal to HKIRC.

What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
