Re: Whois using these ARIN services?? (fwd: Consultation on the Future of ARINʼs Directory Services)

[John Curran via NANOG <nanog () lists nanog org>]

Randy -

There is a proposed timeline (done in stages) contained in the consultation - do you consider if sufficient for 
transition?

As for clients, we’ve quite a few on github; I note that ICANN has mature RDAP client that includes solid IP/ASN 
support.

Thanks!

hi john,

can we assume there will be somewhat finger compatible CLI client tools
for most platforms?

and a staged trasition, to allow for lot of automation that is gonna
have to change.

speaking of automation, sure would be nice if the rirs were compatible.
yes, still a dreamer at my age.
