Re: [Gnso-epdp-team] Recommendation on Web Forms
I we had recommended that all registrars use some form of email contact, then this would not be an issue. But we did not, and ensuring viability of the web form is a direct result. Perhaps not one implicitly contemplated by the GNSO Council, but a direct result of our decisions to date. Alan At 2021-05-25 03:48 PM, Volker Greimann via Gnso-epdp-team wrote:

Stating that the proposals around web forms were flagged in the legal memo is a stretch at best.

As noted, we are supposed to âconsider specific proposals that provide sufficient safeguards â Thhe proposal around web forms is such a proposal.
As such, we should include it in the initial report so we can solicit public comments.

Hello all,
The Instructions for this phase were clear:
b) In relation to feasibility of unique contacts to have a uniform anonymized email address, the EPDP Team is expected to review the legal guidance and consider specific proposals that provide sufficient safeguards to address issues flagged in the legal memo. Groups that requested additional time to consider this topic, which include ALAC, GAC and SSAC, will be responsible to come forward with concrete proposals to address this topic. This consideration is expected to address:
i. Whether or not unique contacts to have a uniform anonymized email address is feasible, and if feasible, whether it should be a requirement.
ii. If feasible, but not a requirement, what guidance, if any, can be provided to Contracted Parties who may want to implement uniform anonymized email addresses. For clarity, the GNSO Council is not directing any particular outcome on either topic, but as manager of the PDP, it is sharing its expectations with regards to which questions are expected to be addressed as part of the EPDP Teamâs deliberations. Consistent with the PDP Manual, the GNSO Council does expect that all the required steps are followed in the consideration of these issues which may include further public comment on an Initial Report and a Final Report that would be considered an addendum to the EPDP Phase 2 Final Report.
Web form requirements are not considered here, and the relevant recommendation is not described as open for review. Web form requirements are out of scope for this EPDP Phase 2a.

Volker, if you and the other registrars agree to be bound by contractual limitations of what a web form should contain as set by the Phase 1 IRT (presuming it agrees to take this on), I would consider it. I have not heard such agreements.
Phase 2a is discussing email contact to registrants. That is Phase 1 Recommendation 13. This is not expanding the scope of this PDP phase.

Hi Alan,
you are correct: This should be addressed as part of the P1 IRT, not this group. We cannot willy-nilly expand the scope of a PDP.

Volker et al,
The Chair suggested that this issue should be addressed, but by the Phase 1 IRT. I believe that he was correct in that the issue does need to be addressed but do not believe that is a real possibility, since the Phase 1 policy did not imply and web form content requirements.
So that leaves us with needing to take some other action to remedy the Phase 1 recommendation that is not working.
Unless you are recommending starting a new PDP just to address this issue, this is a way to finesse it. We include it in our report and solicit input. And of course discuss it following the comment period.
If indeed the instructions from the GNSO Council need to be changed (which I do not believe), that could happen after the public comment period.
This Phase 2a DOES have the mandate to require some form of email address be used. So we ARE discussing a change to Recommendation 13. If we choose NOT to do that, we need to make sure the remaining policy is viable. So I believe this recommendation is indeed in scope!

Hi Laureen,
yes, we did discuss it and always returned to the point that it was out of scope for our group. While I understand the desire to have something on webforms included, discussion was rather one-sided due to the scope. I understand from other registrars that there are many issues with input fields as part of the webforms and they have chosen the format of their forms for a reason.
Best,

Hi,
I think it is not appropriate to introduce a new recommendation at the last minute that has not been deliberated and seems to me to be out of scope of this WG. While I have no objection to the content of this recommendation, and KS has already implemented its webforms in a similar manner, I think the process concern must prevail here.

Unfortunately, Mark and I did not get this in prior to the Friday deadline, but we still believe that it is crucial to include in the Initial Report.
Although some form of email address is a far preferable solution for many on this EPDP, it appears that this will not be a recommendation.
As it stands, the EPDP Recommendation #13 which is supposed to facilitate communications with the registrant does not achieve its goal. Many registrars are using web forms, and in many cases, they are effectively useless. As an example, one common example is a form that simply lets the requestor select one of three messages (Domain name or content is being used in malware, or for spam or abuse; Domain name or content is infringing on a trademark or violating local laws or regulations; or Research or other purpose).
It has been suggested that this matter be referred to the Phase 1 IRT, but without a recommendation saying that the policy may set web form content, there is no way for the IRT to establish such enforceable rules.
Accordingly, the Initial Report must include a new Recommendation:
Recommendation
The Phase 1 Recommendation 13 should be amended to include: Should a Registrar choose to use a web form, that form must allow at the requester to specify the Subject of the email to be send (up to 64 characters) and a free-form text message of up to 512 characters to be included in the communication to the registrant.
