Bug#279797: O: libnet-whois-perl -- Perl Module providing an API to access InterNIC whois database
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of libnet-whois-perl, Stephen Zander <gibreel@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: Perl Module providing an API to access InterNIC whois database
This is a Perl 5 module that retrieves and parses information from the
InterNIC 'whois' database. If you are behind a firewall, you probably
won't be able to use this module.
.
This version supports only the information about domains. Future work
may include information about people and other entities about which
the InterNIC keeps data. Also, you can only use it .org, .edu, .net, and .com
domains. Other whois servers return information in a different syntax and are
not currently supported.
.
See the documentation in the manual page Net::Whois(3pm) for instructions
on how to use it.
