Dear Colleagues, Attached are documents for discussion on Tuesday's (24 January, 15:00 UTC) Privacy and Proxy Service Provider Accreditation Program IRT call: draft Policy sections 2, 5, and 6. We will review as much of these documents as we can Tuesday, and continue with them next week, if needed. The poll results show a clear preference for weekly meetings, so we will be moving to that schedule-thank you for your participation in the poll! A meeting reminder will be distributed on Monday. I want to flag some of the questions we have for you on Section 2, as noted in more detail in the attached: 1. The Final Report in some cases uses the word "SHOULD." ICANN org requests the IRT's feedback on the PDP WG's intent in using the word (as SHOULD is defined here: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt), and whether "SHALL" was intended in any of these instances. 2. With respect to data reminders, did the PDP WG intend for these reminders to reference (a) any Customer information that appears in WHOIS, (b) the underlying Customer data, or (c) both? 3. With respect to data validation and verification, did the PDP WG intend for the requirement to apply to (a) any Customer data, as relevant, in WHOIS; (b) underlying Customer data, as relevant, or (c) both? (Additional questions in document) 4. Did the PDP WG intend for ICANN org to implement new requirements for Privacy and Proxy Service providers to escrow and retain data, distinct from the existing requirements in the RAA? 5. Did the PDP WG intend for this implementation to create minimum, mandatory criteria for all requests to Privacy and Proxy Service providers (See draft Section 2.J)? We will also seek your feedback on the level of detail that is being proposed for the Policy versus the contract. If you have any questions or want to begin to discussing these issues on-list before the call, please feel free to do so. I look forward to speaking with you on Tuesday. Best, Amy Amy E.
