Re: [council] RE: Council report required for the Board on the recently approved WHOIS recommendation


Hi,

I understand how much consultation has gone into coming up to the compromise. But has the compromise itself been commented on?

In any case, I think that every stage of recommendation and decision should be subject to public comment. so as it moves from the council with its responsibility for recommending policy to the board with its responsibility for due diligence and for approving policy, i think there is a reasonable opportunity for public comment.

just to make my point clearer. I don´t see why yet another
round of public comments would do any good, the arguments haven´t
changed for the last three years and that is the "compromise" the
taskforce came up with.

Avri,

this recommendation has already been through various iterations
of public comments at the taskforce and council level. What is
presented to the board now is the final product of ICANNs policy
body for gTLDs created through the ICANN policy process. As the
board is not policy body itself it should not have a look at the
recomendation in that respect but rather in terms of possible flaws
or errors making the policy unworkable.

Best,

tom
