VeriSign Finally Responds to ICANN's Advisory

dmehus writes "VeriSign's Naming and Directory Services division has written to ICANN President and CEO Paul Twomey regarding the recent advisory concerning VeriSign's DNS wildcard redirection service. In the letter, VeriSign's Rusty Lewis says that they are open to independent and objective technical concerns expressed by various Internet bodies; they have formed their own "independent" panel of industry leading experts to produce its own, separate report; and they will not voluntarily suspend SiteFinder. It's a very terse response."

Actually, they have retired their broken "Snubby mail rejector daemon" and have replaced it by a postfix installation that's configured to reject all incoming e-mail.

Another indication for the quality of the research and testing they did before deploying sitefinder...
