Objet : [RFCI-Discuss] whois.gandi.net rejects hosts without reverse dns

Are whois servers required to respond to all hosts, even those without
reverse dns?

$ whois -h whois.verisign-grs.com gandi.net

Does this mean any domains registered with GANDI in a tld that requires a
referral for full contact 
information can be listed?
