Update the ticket once the validation record is in place, please.

*** one.one.one.one can't find _psl.nsw.gov.au: Non-existent domain
*** dns.google can't find _psl.nsw.gov.au: Non-existent domain
*** dns9.quad9.net can't find _psl.nsw.gov.au: Non-existent domain

[dnsguru]

Just a sorting nit, but to comply with the submission guidelines, nsw.gov.au would come before nt.gov.au in the list.

Can you re-arrange those two lines back into their original order?

Please do not go ahead with this change, as it can potentially break existing applications. DCS and CyberNSW are running a project at the moment to investigate the impact of adding nsw.gov.au to the PSL. That report is not yet ready, as most of the affected departments have only been notified of the planned change recently.

[dnsguru]

no action will be taken without the DNS validation records placed in the zone

[nasser-snsw]

Will be closing this PR - our parent cluster will submit a new one.

Please advise when this change will be implemented as not having nsw.gov.au in the PSL is breaking DMARC authentication for subdomains.

This was closed by submitter so it is not proceeding. A plea, if I could be indulged out of respect to the wafer thin resourcing and volunteer time investment... Can future requests in the gov.au space PLEASE be worked out amongst yourselves prior to requesting? Then, once your concensus has been achieved, subsequently just submit a Pull Request and set up dns txt records for it that can be DNS validated and verified tied to the PR.
