Strangely enough, PIR doesn't recognize that one... Google-mining seems
to indicate that its TUCOWS/OPENSRS, but I wont swear to that.=20
As for actually contacting someone to get it fixed, considering past
experience I think nothing short of a public outcry is going to draw
attention to the problem, and whois issues might be just a little to
esoteric for NYT/WP/CNET coverage...=20

Subject: Stupid .org registry code change

need.
> Sponsoring Registrar:R11-LROR
All I really want to know is the Registrar's name/URL to tell my client
so they can modify their nameservers.
Does anyone have:
1) A URL to the table that will allow me to lookup a name from the above
code (or better, a hack to whois that will do said lookup for me)?
2) The e-mail address where I should my suggestion that the person who
came up with this brilliant scheme needs to pursue a new career in a
non-IT related field?
TIA,
Mike
