In preparing for tomorrow's presentation, I realized that Question 5 to the Community omits an important word, "anonymized." We should correct this. Here is the Question from the Initial Report: EPDP Team Question for Community Input #5 Does this guidance as written provide sufficient information and resources to Registrars and Registry Operators who wish to publish a registrant- or registration-based email address? If not, what is missing and why? Taken literally, this might leave the impression that the Recommendation is to publish a standard email address. In fact, our deliberations involved the publication of an anonymized (or more precisely, pseudonymized) email address. I request that we correct this oversight both so that our intention is clear and so that the public comments solicited focus on the real topic to consider - whether to publish some form of an anonymized email address. I propose that we publish a corrected version of the Initial Report that inserts the word "anonymized" prior to "registrant- or registration-based email address" to correct this oversight.
