Dear Alan,

I agree with the principles you suggest and with most of your position about particular parts of scope.

But I think we shouldn't exclude RDAP from the scope of the review.

We already have RDAP ICANN gTLD Profile, where RDAP is described as "new protocol was created as a replacement for the WHOIS protocol".

I think that such description at least allows us to say whether RDAP closes all or most known problems related to current WHOIS.

In preparation for our discussion on Scope tomorrow, I have tried to collect all of the issues raised to date in a simple list. If I have missed something, I do apologize, and please raise it tomorrow.

The list includes:

- Origin of issue and reference to where there may be further information. The two sources so far are the ICANN Bylaws and the document that Karen distributed summarizing earlier e-mails.

- A very brief description.

- My take on whether it is something we could address

- The final decision of the group as to whether to include it or not. (currently all blank)

I have also outlined the start of what I think are reasonable principles to guide our work.

Alan
