Yes, but does it have to be parsable by WHOIS? Earlier, I commented that Registrar "A" needed a way to get the administrator's E-Mail from Registrar "B" -- and since that is the only piece of information they really need, that should be part of RRP or an RRP-analog.
So, if we remove that one requirement from WHOIS, what other legitimate uses are there? When I need to look someone up, the current output is just fine, and my Mark I mod 0 brain parses it perfectly. -- Lynn On Wed, 22 Jan 2003 13:55:07 -0700, Dave Warren wrote: >In order for transfers to work, the receiving registrar much verify the >authenticity of the request.
