+1

Who benefits from the limitation to just .com &.net?

Hi all,

I'm not going to oppose this, as its an important step in the right direction.

That said, I don't understand why it can't be for all gTLDs. Its just a search portal, isn't it? Why would it be a problem for this to be compehensive? Wouldn't a comprehensive portal be better for consumers, not only for ease of access to data, but if compehensive it would gain a reputation as a one-stop-shop and help to address the lack of awareness issue?

Am I missing something here?

Cheers,

Peter

Hi All,
Tx for the many comments about the "centralized database" recommendation
(now #14). I have worked with Michael and Omar on it, and would like to
propose the following, narrower, recommendation:

===> Rec 14: To improve access to the WHOIS data of .COM and .NET
gTLDs, the only remaining Thin Registries, ICANN should set up a
dedicated, multilingual interface website to provide thick Whois data
for them.

Here's the original text.

===> 14. To make WHOIS data more accessible for consumers, ICANN should set
up a dedicated, multilingual interface website to allow "unrestricted and public access to accurate and complete WHOIS information". Such interface should provide thick WHOIS data for all gTLD domain names.

Best,
Kathy
