Do you use dotbd or similar solution?

As we are developiong our own dotdb alternative at dnforum https://www.dnforum.com/sld/ - I am having split thoughts if we should create a .uk version for checking .uk zone files only? :? .. maybe .uk zone files + .com? :?

.. would this be befeficial to see if a keyword is registered on some other .uk zone for the UK domain investors? .. maybe including .London and .Wales?

Tx, Helmuts

if this works - we could replicate it accross our other ccTLD forums
 
ok, we have an fresh and good update here - .uk zone files show up nicely at the https://www.dnforum.com/sld

I have just checked the keyword "bbc" - see it yourself:

shall we have a similar tool limited to .com, .uk, .ie, .london, .wales and .scot here? .. or, is it enough to have these TLDs at DNF?
