The new ICANN-DOC agreement is here:
http://www.icann.org/general/JPA-29sep06.pdf

Consider this gem:

5) ...ICANN shall continue to enforce existing policy
relating to WHOIS, such existing policy requires that
ICANN implement measures to maintain timely,
unrestricted and public access to accurate and
complete WHOIS information, including registrant,
technical, billing and administrative contact
information...

Forget about bottom-up policy development.  Forget
about the work of the WHOIS Task Force.  Forget about
privacy rights that are being embraced on a worldwide
basis.

The USG has dictated what WHOIS policy will be.
