same is the case with .cv domains
I think some of the domains just do not have a whois server
but as-long-as the entries for NS is in the root servers
the network communication still works.

I wanted to see the whois entry for qeqertarsuaq.gl

This TLD has no whois server.
Perhaps this TLD has no whois server?
See <http://www.issociate.de/domain_eng_gl_Greenland.php>:
| Whois Server
| None listed.
But http://whois.domaintools.com/qeqertarsuaq.gl says
Whois Server: whois.ripe.net
That may be plain wrong.
So why didn't we see something like
$ whois last.fm
This TLD has no whois server, but you can access the whois database at
http://www.dot.fm/whois.html
Because there is no such possibility to query a web database?
gwhois can query the whois web database for .fm; it tries to query a
web database at search.greennet.gl for .gl, but fails to do so.
Probably because
$ whois -h whois.ripe.net qeqertarsuaq.gl
%ERROR:101: no entries found
Yes. That means that domaintools.com is wrong.
All weird.
Anyways, what should
$ whois qeqertarsuaq.gl
really say?
Nothing, if there is no whois server for .gl.
