A Python module for retrieving WHOIS information of domains.
This project has been cloned from http://code.google.com/p/pywhois/
- Create a simple importable Python module which will produce parsed WHOIS data for a given domain.
- Able to extract data for all the popular TLDs (com, org, net, ...)

- Works with Python 2.4+ and no external dependencies
