Well, it looks like we have yet another WHOIS database, whois.nic.gov.
The problem is the creators didn't remembered the lessons from previous
WHOIS databases, namely they've created duplicate conflicting NIC Handles.
NIC-DOM has a conflict in whois.nic.mil and whois.nic.gov.
GB1 also has a conflict in various whois databases.
What a mess. Obviously I missed the announcement on the change, does
anyone know where it was posted, or who is in charge this week?
