Re: Merging RRP and Whois
For the record, I also think that is a bad idea to merge the two.
Foor quite a while I'm taken the position that the registration process
tries to solve something quite different then a (public) whois is lookup
service.
Note that the charter does not mention Whois by name - there has been no
discussion up to now about a merging of Whois and RRP.
Is there a copy of the Whois charter available?
I'm not sure wether once was actually made. According to the minutes, it
was only decided that there should another BOF on the subject.
