RE: [registrars] I work for you.

["Antony Van Couvering" <avc@nameengine.com>]

Rick,
 
That's a great note to get.  Thanks for taking the task seriously.
 
I would add only one thing: whois.  I note that whois formats vary
between registrars and now between registries, and that ICANN is
completing a survey about whois which may result in them requiring
changes.  In order to inform our customers, to participate in registrar
policy discussions, and to plan for technical development, I'd like to
know more about what's coming down the road with respect to whois
standards and requirements.
 
Thanks,
 
Antony

	If you have thoughts or concerns on any of the above or wish to

	Remember as Technical Officer of the Registrars Constituency I
work on

	Constituency Execs know your desires. If you want to reach all
the Execs
	and can't remember all our addresses drop a note to
