I still think all data (zone and user) should be synced to (at least) a central OpenNIC server on a regular basis, as a matter of policy. That way there is no data loss, the reputation of OpenNIC and the assocaited TLD doesn't rely on individual operators, and it's somewhat trivial to recover in the event of failure. The LDAP system seems like it would facilitate that quite nicely.

I agree. I'm not suggesting that it's completely without checks and
approvals, just playing devils advocate.

I think there needs to be a balance between control for stability's sake
and freedom and devolution of some power and responsibility from Opennic
to the TLD operator.
