Maybe not the best place to start given that it is a primer and it 
reflects a static point in an evolving ecosystem. I would suggest you at 
least look at the following as well:

I would also remind you that ZISPA does offer a "look up" service for 
co.zw - not full whois access, but it does work.

Personally I would be more concerned with working abuse@ addresses (RFC 
2142)
