with Network Solutions, Inc. (NSI), a Referrel-Whois (RWhois) testbed which will consist
of geographically distributed Internet sites. Each site will develop, maintain and

the collections via a single query which is transparent to the user. [Platform-independent
RWhois clients are under development to facilitate security and I/O.]
