Status of zytrax.com "DNS for Rocket Scientists" website

[Victoria Risk]

Ron Aitchinson called me this afternoon. He is fine, and he promised to try to resurrect his site. He has been struggling with his hosting provider and he said he *might* be looking for new hosting, but he hasn’t thrown in the towel yet.  

I will report back if I get further updates. I told him that a lot of users still find his site very useful and to let ‘us’ know if he ever plans to pull the plug.
