[outages] [OUTAGES] www.openssl.org NXDOMAIN

Right now from here, dig + trace for openssl.net is showing problems.

m.root-servers.net show the ns servers to be

ns6.gandi.net
ns1.openssl.com
dns1.indithosting.net
dns2.indithosting.net

I am not getting answers from ns6.gandi.net sometimes.  Oops a 
traceroute shows my traffic goes through Level3.  So I can forgive that 
right now.

But...

You get different NS servers from different servers hosting openssl.net  
dns2.indithosting.net is reporting the zone's NS servers as:

dns1.indithosting.net  through dns5.indihosting.net
ns1.openssl.com

and sometimes ns6.gandi.net, but not always.  Confusing at best.
