OpenDNS has never blocked any .cm domains, it will only correct .cm to .com if the corresponding address does not exist within the .cm namespace. Any valid .cm domains will work normally, if anyone requires confirmation of this turn the options on in your OpenDNS settings for your network and try the domain airfrance.cm as you will see the .cm name works normally.
