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 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..

Cleaning up the database, establishing good abuse contacts, and purging the abusers is the essential first step to the strategy I draft-outline in <http://www.camblab.com/misc/univ_std.txt>. I hope volunteers will replicate Owen's efforts at RIPE, APNIC and LACNIC. As for subject above, all those whose miserable life needs a little uplift, please turn to <http://www.camblab.com/nugget/slang2.pdf> for your delectation :) Jeffrey Race
