[sakai-core-team] DNS problems with nightly servers?

If you use Google's DNS servers then you get the correct response.

$ dig nightly.sakaiproject.org @8.8.8.8

I think the issue is the registrar has updated the DNS servers for the
sakaiproject.org domain to:

Name Server:NS-1137.AWSDNS-14.ORG
Name Server:NS-196.AWSDNS-24.COM
Name Server:NS-1814.AWSDNS-34.CO.UK
Name Server:NS-984.AWSDNS-59.NET

And because your recursive resolved look to also be authorative for
sakaiproject.org they respond without going to the .org root servers.
Just ask your DNS admins to drop the records for sakaiproject.org and
it should be fixed.
