Proposed Changes to the Whois Service - ICANN Staff Discussion Points

http://gnso.icann.org/issues/whois-privacy/staff-discussion-points-whois-final-15mar2007.htm

 

To assist the GNSO in its deliberations, and to support the work of the 

community, the ICANN staff has prepared 'Staff Notes on Potential 

Implementation Issues.' This document details implementation questions 

and issues relating to the Task Force policy recommendation and its 

minority report - the 'Operational Point of Contact' (OPoC) proposal and 

the 'Special Circumstances' proposal -- and is intended to inform 

ongoing policy work on these issues in a constructive way.

A forum has been set up to facilitate further discussion on Whois and 

the Final Task Force Report. This forum is not part of the formal policy 

development process, but has been created to allow ICANN stakeholders to 

continue to share and discuss their views on the output of the Whois 

Task Force and to inform the process as it moves forward at the GNSO 

Council level.

 

Next Steps

 

The GNSO Council will now begin consideration of the Task Force 

recommendations. The Council will hold public discussions on this topic 

during the ICANN Lisbon meetings, and will continue its work online and 

through conference calls thereafter (updates on Council Whois activities 

can be found at http://gnso.icann.org/issues/whois-privacy/). Following 

its deliberations, the GNSO Council may make a policy recommendation to 

the ICANN Board. Should the ICANN Board receive a recommendation from 

the GNSO Council, it must then consider whether to accept it.
