Hi Jonathan, first of all, I support the new naming of the proposed PDP to better fit and describe the only identified remaining issues. By giving the PDP WG a name that says what is does, it will be easier to attract the necessary parties to participate in this important effort and add focus the work effort. Maybe just one suggestion would be to switch the positions of the words "Accreditation" and "Services" to make it read: "Privacy & Proxy Services Accreditation PDP WG", i.e. the way it is spelled out in text of the draft charter, but not in the headline. Regarding the charter, I feel that the draft is already a good template for the WG. While it may be advisable to give it a final polish in a Drafting Team, I can see why there is support for option one. I would however suggest a few further issues to consider: /"What are the effects of the privacy & proxy service specification contained in the 2013 RAA? Have these new requirements improve//d //Whois quality, registrant contactability and //service usability?" // //"What should be the contractual obligations of ICANN accredited registrars with regard to accredited //privacy/proxy service providers//? / /Should registrars be permitted to knowingly accept registrations where the registrant is using unaccredited service providers that are however bound to the same standards as accredited service providers?"/ etc. So I am not yet certain this draft is or should be the final word. While the remaining changes to this draft may be minor, it maybe worthwhile to go through the entire process by creating a drafting team, if just to make sure all the "i"s are dotted. Best regards, Volker
All,
Following up on our discussion regarding the charter for the "RAA Remaining Issues PDP" on our call on Thursday last week, I hope that we can start a discussion right away regarding possible revisions to the draft charter prepared by staff which I forwarded to you all just prior to our meeting. I believe our aim should be to form a view as to whether or not the draft charter, as amended according to our anticipated discussions, is a document that can be voted on for adoption at our next Council meeting.
As a reminder, our options are essentially either:
1.Discuss and revise this draft charter for formal adoption by the Council, which will then proceed to form a Working Group (WG) to begin work; or
2.Create a Drafting Team (DT) to finalize a charter -- based either upon this draft or starting from a blank slate -- to be proposed for adoption at a later Council meeting.
On our Thursday call last week, several Councillors supported option 1 above as a pragmatic way forward i.e. to see if we can find agreement as to the terms of the charter that will govern the WG's work. I am therefore circulating the draft Charter again (re-titled and slightly revised to more accurately reflect the scope of the PDP) for discussion.
My sense is that the scope will be largely governed by the specific issues that are laid out in Section III of the draft Charter. So, perhaps we can start by discussing possible revisions to these questions, not in terms of substantive discussion over the merits or content of the answers, but in relation to whether they sufficiently describe and frame the scope of work for the WG.
If we are able to reach agreement within the next week, we can then propose the revised charter for adoption on 21 October i.e. within the document deadline for our upcoming 31 October meeting.
I look forward to an engaging and constructive discussion on the list on this topic.
Thanks,
Jonathan
