[gnso-whois-wg] A few questions

[Danny Younger <dannyyounger@xxxxxxxxx>]

(1) For the sake of curiosity, how many billion
look-ups are now performed monthly?  

(2) Under the OPOC proposal, how many monthly look-ups
would be anticipated?  

(3) Multiplying a "nominal fee" times the number of
expected look-ups will yield about how many
million/billion dollars for the registrar community?
