[afnog] AFRINIC.NET DNS problems?

[Bill Sangiwa]

All,

started noticing on my logs and is it of concern to the community??

" lame server resolving 'NS1.AFRINIC.NET' (in 'AFRINIC.NET'?): 
199.243.212.251#53"

and dig trace shows

(ignoring impressive latency times..)

checking on each, found that all at technologia.net are not responding to:
