Council Members,
Thank you Glen - for sharing the memo re. bundling Translation and Transliteration into Thick WHOIS IRT. Prior to the Council meeting tomorrow, I would like to share my position
on agenda Item 8: DISCUSSION - Possible Integration of the Pending Implementation of the Translation & Transliteration of gTLD Contact Data PDP Recommendations with the implementation of Thick
WHOIS.
As a member of the Thick WHOIS working group, I believe greater efficiencies and increased likelihood of a successful outcome would result, if the following recommended approach
to T/T and IRD was considered.
1)
T/T needs to move onto an IRT process
2)
The IRD recommendations need to be evaluated and as appropriate be incorporated into other GNSO policy work on WHOIS, at a minimum as it relates to the T/T IRT and RDS
PDP
The T/T IRT should move forward under the context of the RDS PDP and then relevant IRD recommendations will be evaluated and incorporated as appropriate. The current published
comments
re. T/T IRD implementations are mostly RDAP additions. I would like to re-emphasis the vast amount of work required for this implementation will include, but not limited to, updates
to physical data structure and underlying communications protocols (EPP) to support the new data requirements. RDS will be updating these same system components as well.
Therefore, my preference (and I believe the majority of Registrar’s would agree) would be to move forward and focus on a consolidation with RDS PDP as a more logical grouping
for this work that would result in:
1) Reduce duplication of efforts i.e. T/T IRT and then RDS.
2) Allow the Thick WHOIS/RDAP/CL&D IRT work to continue on as planned without adding an additional 6-12 months delay to what is already a lengthy plan
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi again,
Resending this, as my previous email popped up in the archives looking a little strange.
Thanks again.

Hi,
In preparation for item 8 on Thursday’s Council meeting agenda, I am forwarding a memo developed by GDD staff, and addressed to the GNSO Council, outlining the rationale and preliminary community feedback to the proposal
of merging the implementation of the Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information PDP recommendations with the Consistent Labelling and Display track of the “thick” WHOIS implementation process currently underway.
I hope you will find this informative. I can take any questions or comments from the Council back to the IRT. Of course, you can also direct those to Cyrus and Francisco during their briefing to us on the topic in two days.
Thanks.
Amr

Dear Amr,
I am the GDD lead for the Translation and Transliteration implementation project, and am sending you the attached memo on behalf of Fabien Betremieux to forward to
the GNSO Council for their consideration at their meeting on Thursday, 12 May.
As you have discussed with him, the memo concerns the proposal to merge the implementation of the T/T project into the work stream of the Thick WHOIS IRT.
You can find all the relevant details in the memo itself. Please let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, on behalf of GDD Staff, we thank you for forwarding
it to the GNSO Council ahead of their Thursday meeting.
Best,
