Resignation of the Chair of WHOIS TF3

Hello All, Unfortunately Brian Darville has had to resign from chairing WHOIS TF3 due to other commitments. I thank Brian for his efforts in chairing the TF3 and working to identify a consensus position. It seemed that there was some progress in discussions involving the whole Council in Cape Town. If the Council agrees, I am prepared to chair a couple of extra meetings in January 2005 to get some agreement around some high-level recommendations (similar to those developed so far by WHOIS TF1/2), and then leave the Task Force to elect a new chair and flesh out the detail of recommendations in a report suitable for public comment and eventually formal approval as a consensus recommendation. Regards, Bruce Tonkin -----Original Message----- From: Brian Darville Sent: Wednesday, 22 December 2004 1:59 AM To: Bruce Tonkin Subject: Task Force 3 - Resignation as Chair and From the Task Force Dear Bruce: I am writing to formally notify you that I am resigning from participation in Task Force 3, including my role as Chair of the Task Force. Due to other professional commitments I have undertaken recently, I cannot continue to participate in the Task Force. I had originally planned that my participation in the Task Force would end in October 2004. I stayed on through December in an effort to reach consensus on the narrow recommendations the Task Force had been considering this fall. However, we were unable to reach a consensus. At this point, I believe it will be fruitful for the IPC to appoint another Task Force representative who can more fully participate in the Task Force, including traveling to the various ICANN meetings. I appreciate your assisting the Task Force this Fall, and wish you and the other Task Force members a swift resolution of the Task Force's remaining work. Sincerely, Brian Darville Oblon, Spivak

Sounds like a good idea to have you on Board of TF3, as chair. Many thanks to Brian Kiyoshi I. Tsuru Bello, Guzmán, Morales y Tsuru, S.C.

Bruce, I support your helping to convene the TF; I agree that we did make some progress working together with Councilers and the TF and would welcome at least one more such session to help to further that work.
