There are a few details that need to be clarified, but that will be in the proposal that will be sent to the working group shortly. The matter of discussion was deployment considerations: whether to implement this new behaviour for the default query right away, or with a -c flag. It was suggested that at the first phase we may want to implement it as a default behaviour for the whois web cgi, but expect the whois client to use the -c flag explicitly. And that would meet the needs of the average user. > Whatever options will be implemented to finetune the output for experienced > users/coders I don't care, but the average user should see the relevant > information. > > Regards, > > Andre Koopal > Regards, Andrei
