I raised this with the CRISP WG chair (Ted Hardie) following the earlier comment to this effect, and he confirmed what I suspected that the scope of CRISP is somewhat narrower than general registry "... charter is limited to domain-registry/registrar/registrant administrative services (replacing that portion of whois, essentially, without being backwards compatible with whois)". Ted suggested that it might be helpful to engage Leslie Daigle (leslie@thinkingcat.com) in discussions about assignment of identifiers. #g PS: I might be prepared to help with a draft, but not anytime in the next month. (Also, as I think you are aware, I don't wholly buy what often seems to be the preferred W3C position of HTTP:-for-everything.) ------------------- Graham Klyne <GK@NineByNine.org>Received on Wednesday, 28 August 2002 10:37:51 GMT
