[Savannah-help-public] retiring freesoftware.fsf.org

[Ward Vandewege]

Hi folks,

I'd like to retire the *.freesoftware.fsf.org entries from our nameservers.
These are the records:

;;
;; Non GNU Free Software hosting (ask address@hidden)
;;
freesoftware            IN      CNAME   subversions-ssh.gnu.org.
fs                      IN      CNAME   www.gnu.org.
www.freesoftware        IN      CNAME   www.gnu.org.
mail.freesoftware       IN      A       199.232.76.166
                        IN      MX      10 mail.fsf.org.
                        IN      MX      20 mx20.gnu.org.
bugs.freesoftware       IN      CNAME   bugs.gnu.org.
cvs.freesoftware        IN      CNAME   subversions.gnu.org.
ftp.freesoftware        IN      CNAME   ftp.gnu.org.
test-mx20.freesoftware  IN      MX      0 mx20.gnu.org.

I'm not entirely sure if that comment really applies - if it does this has
all long been superceded by nongnu.org.

In the few places where I've found traces of freesoftware.fsf.org on our
servers, it seems largely unused (for instance,
http://mail.freesoftware.fsf.org hardly gets any hits, only a few crawlers.

Am I missing some really obvious important use for *.freesoftware.fsf.org, or
can I scrap it?

Thanks,
Ward.
