offlinetime while rebuilding db

we switched the domain-database to new, hopefully faster hdd's sponsored by roelof temmingh (and me).
since postgresql still denies a parallel installation i took the opportunity to rebuild the database, update the server and switch the stuff to the new sata-raid. it'll take a few hours until the database is rebuilt and restarted, but it's weekend - you don't work anyway, do you?

we'll be back again soon.

how nice - the legal department strikes back.

while it's a fact that there are tons of sites offering plain whois-lookups without any comments out there on the net, i am goin to comply and add the disclaimers and comments to serversniffs output, rendering whois-info almost useless.

really - this is dumb and not followable:

whenever you view a whois-page (even at nic.de), the content gets saved in proxies and your local browsercache.

whenever you choose to use one of the whois-sites that won't display disclaimers, you're free to save this data.

finally i don't really see a real abuse-potential here.

but anyway: here you are: comments in domainreports are shown. you are no longer allowed to view this data in your browser unless you set your cache-size to 000KB.

you're fine now?

Je suis tombé sur ton site depuis un retweet, donc j’interagis et je met des commentaires quand cela m'interpelle et que ça en vaut la peine.
