For those who may not have noticed... the .AN ccTLD (Netherlands
Antilles) has been deleted from the root zone today. I was keeping an
eye on it, because we were operating a secondary name server for .AN.

This update reflects the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles in
2010, during which some of the islands gained more independence and
their own ccTLDs (Curaçao - CW, Aruba - AW).
