Dear RDS-WHOIS2 Review Team, First of all thank you for the Report. It is very comprehensive, and provides a lot of knowledge to newcommers, like me. Among other things, the Report addresses the possible influence of GDPR and other applicable laws. And I just wonder, if some attention shouldn't be paid also to the Modernised Convention for the Protection of Individuals with Regard to the Processing of Personal Data of the Council of Europe (CoE), which has itself been brought inline with the GDPR? The Recital N 105 (https://gdpr-info.eu/recitals/no-105/) also reflects on this CoE Convention, moreover, CoE is not a pure European but more a kind of International Organization, and the Modernized Convention is open for third countries. Thank you very much for your consideration. I have to learn a lot, and will be hopefully able to contribute more to the work in ICANN in the future.
