At http://www.itu.int/net/cctlds/nics.htm is a preliminary survey conducted by ITU of Internet ISO 3166-based top level domains.
This seems to be the whois data frozen in immutable form. Though it seems to also have a URL if the form is available online.
Freezing the data in immutable form seems counterproductive and somewhat dangerous. Please clarify the benefits/goals here.
Well, it started like this... The ITU gets a request about once a week along the lines "where is the NIC for so and so". We had no place to point them to as the whois data didn't have this. So I asked one of my assistants to collect this information by contacting the listings in the whois database and we'd make this information publicly available. When she started, she discovered that the whois data is often out of date - she found that about 50% of the whois records are wrong in some form (listing people who had died, left companies several years ago, invalid email addresses/telephone/fax numbers, etc...). So I told her to try to carefully collect this information and then we'd ship it off the database to IANA and hopefully get things up-to-date (which we've done). The web pages are auto-generated from this database. There's more in the database which we will slowly move out into the html pages (e.g., today, country names in three languages were added, later we'll add who is sovereign over various small territories). As soon as the authoritative data really is, we'll just point to that, and just list the extra info we've collected.
