The 'whois' client included in inetutils-1.9.4 seems unable to find
information about .ORG domains.  For example:

> mhw@jojen ~$ 
> /gnu/store/lgdqnib88jsdp57gp129qxdvzsyzlg2j-inetutils-1.9.4/bin/whois gnu.org
> No match for "GNU.ORG".

> The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .EDU domains and
> Registrars.

In contrast, the 'whois' client distributed at
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/whois/ provides useful
information:
