Action TLD-33.3 (HARMONIC and other registries)

           TLD-33.3 [Chair]
                Request information from registries on whether they
                are prepared to make their data available for pilot
                project using HARMONIC interface.

Philippe Renaud gave an excellent presentation at RIPE 33 on NIC-FR's 
directory system, HARMONIC.  This allows registry data to be searched by
geographical area, market (product or service) segment or company
name, using natural language and is suggested as a means to 'take 
the heat out of naming'.  HARMONIC is designed to integrate data from 
multiple registries in a single coherent query system.

I understand that at least one other registry is interested in 
exploring use of this system, and that NIC-FR is eager to involve
other registries.

To explore, you can visit <http://harmonic.nic.fr/>

If your registry is interested in co-operating in this project,
please let Philippe know, either directly or via the tld-wg list.
