- CydeWeys 3y agoWorth pointing out that WHOIS is sunsetting in January 2025 and that RDAP (already live) is the replacement.
- pabs3 3y agoIs this what you mean by WHOIS sunsetting? Do you have any more/other details? https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/icann-board-approves-rdap-amendments-04-05-2023-en https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/icann-board-approves-...
- CydeWeys 3y agoYes, that's it exactly, particularly this part: > The global amendments specify operational requirements for providing Registration Data Directory Services (RDDS) via RDAP and detail the sunset of certain obligations for registries and registrars to provide RDDS via the WHOIS protocol by 28 January 2025. Note that, because registries will be contractually mandated to support RDAP, and that if they choose to continue supporting WHOIS they will be subject to additional uptime/monitoring requirements on WHOIS that they wouldn't be if they simply dropped WHOIS, most are planning on dropping WHOIS as soon as possible.
