Hi Everybody, DNCL attended the NZNOG conference in January, and talked about the policy consultation on Port 43 WHOIS requirements. You can read more about that consultation and the submissions here https://dnc.org.nz/port-43. Thanks to those NZNOG members who provided a submission. The DNCL Board has considered all submissions, and decided that the information returned via Port 43 will be reduced. Port 43 queries will continue to show domain name availability, Registrar contact details and name server details (including DS records). It will no longer show contact details of Registrant, Admin or Technical contacts, or the date billed until information. Though this information will still be available on the DNCL website (http://www.dnc.org.nz/). DNCL and InternetNZ/NZRS are working on a plan to implement the changes in early April 2018. If you have any questions regarding the process or decision feel free to drop a line to info(a)dnc.org.nz -- Daniel Griggs e: daniel(a)internetnz.net.nz p: +64 27 448 8230
