Re: Minutes from San Diego

     I've come to the conclusion that this effort
    is being driven by the well-intentioned, but misplaced belief that whois:43
    is only used for domain related purposes.

Well, the discussion seems to circle around domain names, but that
was certainly not the intention. At the BOF was also discussion
about the use RIPE and friend make voor IP delegations, AS info
etc.

I guess that the letter part is less visible for the public, only
network operators care about this. Maybe that's why the discussion
is dominated by the ``name'' crowd and not the ``number'' crowd.
