Document Abstract: 

   Efforts are currently being undertaken to review the role of Whois 
   (as defined in RFC 954 [2] and formalize registry/registrar 
   communications protocols in light of the current and evolving scope 
   and utility of DNS, domain name registries and related entities. In 
   order for this work to be truly effective and broadly applicable, it 
   is important that accepted definitions act as the foundation. This 
   document is an attempt to create a starting point for the requisite 
   dialogue that will ultimately foster the determination and 
   acceptance of these definitions.  

Commentary, corrections or criticisms welcomed.

Thanks,
