RE: [PEAR-DEV] Competitive Class: Net_Whois

If nobody has an objection, I will import my new code for Net_Whois into the CVS and replace the existing class and package.xml file.

The class automatically queries authoritive whois servers if one is listed. All network functions are handled through Net_Socket. The class can query: * COM, ORG & NET domain names * Country code domain names * GOV & MIL domain names * ARIN IP address allocations * Route arbiter database * Asia/Pacific network allocations * IPv6 resource centre * Internic and ARIN handles To my surprise after connecting to the CVS via the web interface, I see that an existing Net_Whois class exists. The existing class is very simple in structure as the sole function is "query". My interface is completely different as I do not allow the user to specify which whois server to query, other than for the specialty lookups. As my Net_Whois class is stable for production use and the interface won't be changing, what is the best course of action for getting my implementation into the CVS tree?
