Recommendations of the Whois Review Team | http://www.icann.org/en/about/aoc-review/whois/final-report-11may12-en | Although the .COM and .NET WHOIS models have remained unchanged for 11 years, there are some recommendations underway within the GNSO asking the community to consider the value of moving thin registries to a “thick WHOIS” model. Published on November 22, 2011, the comments ask the Community what “positive and/or negative effects” may arise from such a change. As this evaluation is now taking place, it is not an existing policy which the Review Team could evaluate. However, we note the proceeding could lead to significant changes in the area. |
