I don't mind IRIS as a technology, but I don't see the value in making an investment in a technology "just because". There's no business or customer value here, so I'm kind of stuck trying to justify why any registrar or registry would want to make the investment.

- ideally replace port-43 WHOIS with IRIS (RFC3981) for this purpose.
Web Based access also possible but requires authentication and possibly
human readable text to be entered.
