<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Mark,<br>
here is a brief description of the present situation of the .td
ccTLD:<br>
- two of the primary dns servers are hosted in N'Djamena, while
some are hosted by afnic and AfriNIC (via the anycast project)<br>
- there was a need to changed the information in the IANA
database as the nameservers registered there was not longer
those really used. AfriNIC asked the DNS contact at Sotel to do
that, but I am not sure he did it.<br>
- the .td ccTLD is not a specific entity on its own: Sotel
(national telco) is in charge of the technical management of the
nameservers and OTRT (telecommunication regulator) acts as the
sponsor organization. No staff, no specific organisation, no
procedure, no policy framework built, no interaction with the
local Internet community, etc. Even the importance of the DNS
system is not understood by those in charge of their management.<br>
<br>
The whole ccTLD is to be built.<br>
<br>
I transfered Mark's email to the only contact I have in Sotel
and with the help of some friend, I can also try to meet the
managing director of O.T.R.T and Sotel on this subject if
necessary.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>

Chad was briefly spoken about at the AfTLD meeting in Livingstone.
No one present really knew who was responsible for Chad - or perhaps
rather how to contact them.
There are quite a few people on the continent who are willing to help.
I've personally seen no cry for help yet though.
This report really does not make Internet in Africa look very good.
How can we (the African community) help?

L'article ci-dessous article sur la panne et la négligence dans la gestion
du ccTLD .td (Tchad) devrait alimenter les réflexions du Groupe de travail
sur la stratégie ICANN pour l'Afrique concernant une gestion pérenne et
sérieuse des ccTLDs Africains.

Y'a-t-il un collègue Tchadien sur la liste pour nous apporter des
clarifications?
Cordialement,

<pre wrap="">Effectivement, c'est pas la première fois que ce problème apparaît. Le
responsable de la gestion des dns primaires est informé depuis la
dernière formation IPv6 du risque de problème sur le .td. En fait, le
problème est à deux niveaux:
- d'abord au niveau de la gestion des serveurs: compétences,
organisation, responsabilités, professionnalisme, etc
- ensuite, il y a une opération de modification de serveur dns qui à ma
connaissance n'a pas été effectué correctement.
Je vais les relancer là dessus, mais rien de dit que je serai écouté.
Je prévois d'organiser une formation sur le DNS/DNSSEC d'ici la fin du
mois, à condition que cela intéresse quelqu'un.
C'est vraiment dommage.
