Subject: RE: URGENT REQUEST - Community Input re Accreditation Model Draft
Dear ICANN Community Leadership Colleagues:
I write to follow up on my prior communication below to provide you with a formal invitation from the IPC and the BC to participate in a community-wide discussion regarding the proposed accreditation and access model for non-public WHOIS data, which was first circulated to the community during ICANN 61. The discussion will take place via ICANN-supported remote participation and/or audio bridge this Friday April 6, 2018 from 1400-1600 UTC. Please find the formal invitation attached with the pertinent participation details. Please distribute the invitation to your respective stakeholders and encourage broad distribution to encourage as much participation as possible in the discussion.
Of course, please continue to channel written comments on the accreditation model proposal to 3amcomments@gmail.com, with a copy to internet@winterfeldt.law.
Thank you very much for your assistance and engagement with respect to this ongoing effort.
Best regards,
Brian

Subject: URGENT REQUEST - Community Input re Accreditation Model Draft
Importance: High
Dear ICANN Community Leadership Colleagues:
As a follow-up to my statement on behalf of the IPC during Public Forum II at ICANN 61 in Puerto Rico with Steve DelBianco (from the BC), I am writing to again request your stakeholders’ input and collaboration on the proposed Accreditation Model for access to non-public WHOIS data (Version 1.3). Our sincere hope is that this model will be implemented alongside the ICANN-developed Proposed Interim Model for GDPR Compliance. The Accreditation Model can be found here: http://www.ipconstituency.org/assets/docs/WHOIS%20Access%20Accreditation%20Process%201.3[1].pdf[ipconstituency.org].
We welcome any questions or feedback on the proposed Accreditation Model, put forward as a strawman to facilitate broader community-wide efforts to develop an accreditation system proposal. We had hoped to convene a community-wide call swiftly after ICANN 61, but the absence of Adobe Connect has made facilitating community discussion and input difficult. However, with the stop-gap solutions being put into place, we hope to convene a call to discuss Accreditation Model development within the next week or so.
Developing an Accreditation Model for access to non-public WHOIS data is a critical yet-to-be-developed element of the interim GDPR compliance model, and as Goran noted in his letter to DPAs, the community has achieved consensus that something must be finalized and implemented to assure the appropriate functioning of a gated/tiered/layered access WHOIS system. Again, we hope that the Accreditation Model proposal we are sharing can act as a starting point for the community to make quick progress in this respect.
Please send any input on this matter to 3amcomments@gmail.com as soon as possible, with a copy to internet@winterfeldt.law. This will help us make sure all the input provided is received and appropriately captured. Again, we hope to convene a community call to facilitate continued discussion on this issue next week, so we would love to receive your feedback ideally before the community session!
Thank you for your input and timely engagement in this vital aspect of our ongoing work around GDPR and WHOIS!
Best regards,
Brian
