Subject: 'query' method should always return list in list context
'query' method returns undef on errors even if it's called in list context, what is quite unpractical. -- Best regards, Ruslan.

Dear Ruz Thanks for your feedback. I agree, the interface should try it's best to return values accordingly the context they're inserted into. I need to build a test case for this (or maybe you can please provide me with one?), and I need to look into how much impact this change have on the remaining of my user base. I will come back to this soon, Ruz. Cheers! -- Luis Motta Campos is a software engineer, Perl Programmer, foodie and photographer.
Raz, I've rewritten the whole module, and would recommend you to upgrade to the new 2.00 version. It's pretty stable now, and I will add some more features before promoting it from "alpha" to production-grade, but I would appreciate that someone use it in real applications so I can have feedback about the module design and conception. Thank you for your interest and for reporting bugs on Net::Whois::RIPE. Kind regards -- Luis Motta Campos is a software engineer, Perl Programmer, foodie and photographer.
