>From my previous mail:

In the domain name class:

- domainname
- pointer to registrar that registered the data
- DNS configuration data (nameservers)
- public keys of the domain holder (needed for transfer of
  domain registration services between registrars)
  
In the registrar class (note there are much less registrars then domains):

- all contact information of the registrar
- public keys of registrars  
  
The DNS configuration data could also be moved to the registrar, but I
consider that too risky since the repository should stay valid even if a
registrar goes out of business.
