An important issue when using Services like Google Public DNS is the
fact that CDN
are not aware and can not resolve the real user IP of the DNS request.

Therefore CDNs are making wrong Geo decisions based on Google DNS IP
instead
of the CDN IP,how google DNS is planned to solve this issue which will
cause slower
experience when surfing through web sites with CDN (and there are LOT
of them..)

One option I thought is to supply a backend API from google DNS to the
CDN,
is this something on the plan ?

David, content distribution networks and open resolvers (or any
resolvers geographically distant from users) do have issues. This has
been discussed before in this forum; for example:
