Chris,
If you read PPML, there is a HUGE push via Owen DeLong's Policy
2003-1a to help with some aspects of the whois Contact..
his policy is mainly based on the abuse contact, But I think may=20
get extended to all contacts eventually...
Owen- Wanta jump in here???
And-- if you feel strong enough to be flamed on the ARIN PPML list
propose a Policy based on your comments.. I for one agree with you..
just give 2 or 3 tries.. If it fails once - retry 24 hours if
it fails again retry 48 hours. If it fails again.. 3 strikes and=20
your out in the old ball game (add in the music from "take me out to=20
the ballgame")
Later,
J
That's my 10 cents worth- ya know inflation gets us everywhere...
