  The Chair, <b>Brian Darville</b> referred to the list of work items requested 
  from ICANN staff in regards to the various WHOIS Task Forces: <br>
  1) Request for statements of interest in PDP for use as informational material 
  in the publishing of any reports or policy proposals <br>
  <br>
  Task force members were urged to send these statements to Barbara Roseman or 
  the GNSO Secretariat<br>
  <br>
  2) An opinion from General Counsel on the status of various participants in 
  the Task Force, e.g., constituency representatives, liaisons, Nom-Comm appointees, 
  outside experts<br>
  </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Awaiting General Counsel's opinion<br>
  <br>
  3) Calendar for the Task Force with PDP mandated deadline</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Staff Manager reported that it was 
  being prepared<br>
  <br>
  <br>
  4) Assessment of data gathering process for Task Forces 2 and 3, and proposed 
  timeframes for completing that work<br>
  <b>Barbara Roseman</b> suggested getting the timeframe from Jordyn Buchanan 
  for task force 2 to work on.<br>
  A reasonable timeframe had to be submitted to Council and a request to Council 
  for an extension of time on a certain area of the work. Assessment of data gathering 
  would be dependent to a certain extent on some of the information from task 
  force 1 <br>
  </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Brian Darville referred to the <br>
  Tasks/Milestones from the <a href="http://gnso.icann.org/issues/whois-privacy/tor3.shtml";>task 
  force 3 terms of reference</a><br>
  ================ <br>
  <br>
  1. - collect information on the current techniques that registrars use to verify 
  that the data collected is correct. For example techniques to detect typing 
  errors by registrants intending to provide correct information. Survey approaches 
  used by cctlds to verify that the contact data collected is correct. <br>
  <b>Barbara Roseman</b> would contact ccTLDs launching group, it was believed 
  that the ccTLDs had a way of verifying collected was correct. <br>
  Check what elements they found as important .<br>
  <br>
  2. - collect publicly available information on the techniques used by other 
  online service providers (to verify that data collected is correct) as well 
  as information on the price of services offered by the online service provider. 
  <br>
  <br>
  <b>Sarah Deutsch </b>offered to do brainstorming and find out what was available.<br>
  <b>Brian Darville</b>, the task force chair pointed to a useful <a href="http://www.circleid.com/article.php?id=82_0_1_0/";>article</a>: 
  <a href="http://www.circleid.com/article.php?id=82_0_1_0/";>Is Whois Data Accuracy 
  Enough</a>?</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>Greg Ruth</b> proposed revising 
  the RFCs to see whether there were any best practice documents<br>
  <br>
  First data collection in by January 15 - 20 <br>
  Time frame proposed 3 weeks January 21 - 28 <br>
  <br>
  3. - create a best practices document for improving data verification based 
  on the information collected that can be applied on a global basis Put on hold 
  till after January 1 <br>
  <br>
  4. - determine whether any changes are required in the contracts to specify 
  what data verification is necessary at time of collection to improve accuracy 
  <br>
  <br>
  ICANN Staff should look at this. An analysis should be made of what it would 
  take to implement. <br>
  <br>
  5. - determine what verification mechanisms can be used cost effectively to 
  combat the deliberate provision of false information, and determine whether 
  additional mechanisms are necessary to provide traceability of registrants, 
  or provide for more timely responses for misuse of domain names associated with 
  deliberately false information.<br>
  <br>
  Could be compiled with point 3 There may be some information in the article 
  below <br>

  Enough</a>? <br>

<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>Marilyn Cade </b>reminded Task 
  force members that the GNSO Council was responsible for revising the scope of 
  work set out for the task force. All task force reports should include links 
  to comments received during comment periods.<br>
