[RFCI-Discuss] New whois server overview

[Frank Ellermann]

Hi, here's my first whois server overview for 2006, only the
TLDs where RFCI, IANA, and my rxwhois client (v1.9) "disagree"
for various reasons (URLs not checked):

        +--- R: RFCI, listed as whois.rfc-igorant.org
        |+-- I: IANA, no whois server shown by whois.iana.org
        ||+- Private: no known public whois server (port 43)
        |||
