Regarding this issue about labeling content... while I still do not have a 
solution for determining if a page is unique to OpenNic, or simply a mirror of 
an ICANN domain, I do have a way to tag contents based on what group it is 
coming from.  I have now added tags to pages based on their source (opennic, 
newnations, icann), and will add additional tags as we peer with other groups.

Once I get some sample data in the database, I will get some buttons added to 
the web page to allow users to limit search results by their source, for those 
who wish to search ONLY within a specific DNS set.  Hopefully this is satisfactory?
