    Just for some background, due to problems they had, they were only
    allowing zone slaving with known IP addresses.  Because of that, I
    arranged to allow NS2.opennic.glue to directly slave their zones,
    and then I was sharing that info with the other T1 servers.  That
    seems like it might have changed, because I have changed the IP
    address of NS2 and it is still receiving the zone files (assuming of
    course that there have actually been any recent changes to their
    serial?).
    
    So while it appears that their DNS is still working, I have some
    serious reservations about the fact that we simply cannot get ahold
    of anyone in their group.  All signs seem to indicate the project
    has been completely abandoned and is just running itself with their
    last code base until someone actually hacks their server.

I don't think there is any reason to stop peering with NN, even if the site not maintained there hasn't been any technical problems. (I have some domains with them as redirects) OpenNIC shouldn't be responsible for censoring bad language and adult sites.
