Well - Bill told me he could help them out. I didn't want to burden
anyone with it unnecessarily.
This whole iana trip is a really big bother. Information is always
outdated, updates are never on time. And when updates are done - critical
information like whois servers are not properly recorded.
I have a good mind to contact the admins that have replied and see if any
of them want to do anything about it. There are now 3 cctld admins who
have complained to me that iana is not providing them with prompt service.
Bill Manning said he could help - and now it's pass the buck time. People
.. people .. people, this is not the way to run the world.
Regards
Joe Baptista
