I agree with Mike on this one. Yes WHOISd does need a replacement, and I was thinking that’s what RDAP was about. Getting rid of it entirely makes absolutely no sense, and will probably have many repercussions like everyone here has noted… I have no problems with private registrations, they should be listed to a company that can handle government/abuse requests like any other registrar. I would also want sub accounts, ie resellers to be listed for the sake of sanity, which I think was proposed earlier as well.
No clue where the whole idea of ditching it all together came from, but seems a bit bizarre to anyone dealing with operations. > On Mar 24, 2017, at 6:42 PM, Michael Wise via mailop <mailop@mailop.org> > wrote: > > > If a reliable WHOIS replacement is not proffered... > > The Pro-Privacy crowd will have all the privacy they want and more. > Because I suspect, personally, not speaking for my employer, that there will > be many, many places where their connects will be refused without recourse. > > Aloha, > Michael. > -- > Michael J Wise > Microsoft Corporation| Spam Analysis > "Your Spam Specimen Has Been Processed." > Got the Junk Mail Reporting Tool ? > _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
