Now I'd like to check to make sure that there is 100% consistancy between what is in WHOIS and what is in the zone files. This may perhaps not be entirely wasted effort. I have some basis to believe that for at least one RIR, the WHOIS and the zone files are *not* 100% consistant with one another. Regards, rfg P.S. I also don't think that it would have killed anyone if someone had just had the minimal courtesy to put a README file in the /pub/zones/ directory, explaining what Anand Buddhdev just explained about why some data is present there, while a whole lot of other data that one would naturally expect to see there is just mysteriously absent. No, none of this is either obvious or intutive.
