Hello All, Since Michele is out sick I am trying to help move things forward. We will be discussing all the drafting team's work tomorrow on the working group call. We need someone from the DT to provide the final document and present the definition and high level overview of your work. Please let me know who will present for DT1 The leadership has been encouraging the DT's to standardized the format of the definition and to focus on the "information collected". I have suggested changes to the definition below but up to the DT to revise the definition. *Technical Resolution* "Information collected to enable contact of the relevant contacts to facilitate tracing, identification and resolution of incidents, which relate, either entirely or in part, to technical issues relating to the DNS. Use of such data should ordinarily be limited to those who are affected by such issues, or by those persons who are tasked (directly or indirectly) with the resolution of such matters on their behalf." *Academic Research * "Information collected to enable use of aggregate WHOIS data elements by researchers and other similar persons, as a source for academic or other public interest studies or research, relating either solely or in part, to the use of the DNS." Talk to you all tomorrow. Susan
