Hello!

When setting up the mod relay I've put 2 domain in Class w:

moderators.isc.org
moderators.uu.net

Can some people tell about the history here?
I know ISC and I found out that uunet was an ISP with a bad history.

Currently moderators.uu.net has an NS pointing to the ISC.

Why were there 2 domains for the moderated groups?

Was there a special (company) reason for uunet?

UUNET has been acquired by Verizon, but their Domain and ASN still
exist. I wonder that they still provide the NS redirect to ISC.

uu.net is probably older than the ISC:

| With funding in the form of a loan from Usenix, UUNET Communications
| Services began operations in 1987 as a non-profit corporation providing
| Usenet feeds, e-mail exchange, and access to a large repository of
| software source code and related information. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UUNET#Early_existence>

ISC was only founded in 1994, almost a decade later.

So probably moderators.uu.net was first and superseded by
moderators.isc.org later on.

Thanks for clarification.
Is moderators.uu.net still in use anywhere?
