In October 2014 I published a list of hostnames used in the Nodelist, that did not return a valid IP addrss from DNS. The respose was host unknown.
My stance was that these nodes were no longer active, and their hostnames expired, when some of the dynamic dns services stopped their free service.
Some reacted that these nodes were temporarily not available and would be back soon.
From that day, I tried to resolve these hostnames daily. After 409 consecutive days I have a list of systems, where sysops and their nethosts have not noticed, that connections cannot be made, based on the contact information in the nodelist.
My humble opinion is that these systems do not exist and should be removed from the Nodelits.
