.taipei zone access via czds
Hey, Talking about having trouble getting access to certain zones: Has anybody here been able to get access to the .taipei zone? I've repeatedly submitted requests that were always shut down with a note saying: --- Reason: Requester did not provide correct or legitimate credentials (explain why) Explanation: Please provide a complete address, a telephone number and associated FTP IP address and resubmit your request for approval. --- For each request, I _did_ in fact provide all that information. I've also tried to reach out to the contacts listed on https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/taipei.html / whois, but the technical contact never replied and the administrative contact email address bounces. (I've filed a request with ICANN to update the information.) If anybody here managed to get access to the zone, would you mind sharing how you went about that? Thanks! -Jan

Yes, but it is a long-standing subscription that gets renewed without trouble, so haven't had to face a fresh request since initial approval most of a decade ago. Theere appear to be just under 4200 delegations in that zone, with just under 400 DNSSEC-signed. -- Viktor. 🇺🇦 Слава Україні!

Same here, originally got approved in 2015 when the zone was empty. R's, John
