So it is the same now as whois. The software (eg jwhois) needs to know all these days hardcoded. If we only we had agreed on some standard a long time ago (eg whois.nic.tld or subtld.nic.tld) > The original repository (or repositories) can be built by vendor, > crowd-sourced (example: PublicSuffix.org), hosted at the IANA, by the TLD > registries, or somewhere else. But if you go through all of that, you might as well harvest the subtld structure too. eg I don't think the draft is very meaningful without either the central repository/registry or a bootstrap that is similar in all TLD's (I'd use the DNS for this, but someone would probably shoot me) Paul _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
