Thanks for the update Holly. Note CNNIC has won the bid for developing a 'reference implementation' of the RESTful WHOIS server. This will be open source development. It is intended to fix the disabilities of current WHOIS data display + accommodate internationalized domain name registration data. It will support Port 43 WHOIS server proxy as well. - Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Sun, Oct 28, 2012 at 11:38 PM, Holly Raiche <h.raiche@internode.on.net>wrote:
Hi Olivier - and everyone
Apologies for not reporting back sooner. I didn't arrive back in Oz until Tuesday and have been tied up since then.
I couldn't put the two reports into the table but they can be taken from my comments in the workspace (Matt, is that okay? - could you put my reports into the table?)
The presentations themselves are on the ICANN website under the Toronto meeting.
Some points arising from the two meetings:
- the PDP on a thick Whois is supposed to be out soon - we should watch for it. - Particularly Garth but Evan, Carlton and whomever is following compliance - watch for (and maybe email Compliance) for the actual Audit Plan. What is on the website is the list of what Compliance called 'high risk' clauses against which compliance will be audited. Do we see others that should be included? - that feeds into the RAA negotiations - the results of which will be open for a PDP. That will give us a chance to say other clauses should also be in the Audit Plan. - Note that the development of WEIRD Protocol will allow differentiated access (i.e, law enforcement/security can be given greater access to data than the general public). That still leaves open the questions of who should use privacy/proxy servers and how to define those who have access to Whois data. - have a look at the initial data (use the link on the ICANN website) on preliminary data on whois - who are the registrants, etc. It does raise questions about who and why privacy/proxy servers are being used.
Happy reading.
Holly

Hello all,
the meeting report page of our ICANN Toronto week is at:
https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Toronto+Meeting+Reports
Congratulations and thanks to all who have filed one or more reports! However, I note that most people have not filed any report at all. This is very disappointing.
If you have attended a session which does not have a report so far, please be so kind to write a short report, even a few lines, to let others know the issues discussed and the general topics of the meeting, along with the conclusion, if any.
Many thanks,
Olivier
