French domain names .fr

[noeska]

Where can i do a whois-lookup for french domain names?
Also where can i register french domain names? Does one have to live in frace to register a french domain name e.g. what are the conditions. What does a french domain name cost?

Thanks for your answers in advance!

you have to live in france to get a .fr name of have biz partners there but there is a big price tag for a .fr name
