Telephone conference tmw

Feb. 15, 2011

Dear All: My apologies, but I won't be able to attend the call tomorrow. I had sent a proposed revised definition to the Law Enforcement team a few days ago, but have not heard back with respect to that revisions. I can't find that email any more, but I think the below is the final definition that I had sent around to the sub-team. Lutz, Sharon do you still have the latest draft that I had sent? "Law enforcement shall be defined as a municipality, department, division, section, branch, body corporate, foundation, or association of a nationally or internationally recognized government and whoes responsibility is to maintain, co-ordinate, and enforce laws, regulations, or multi-national treaty obligations within the internationally recognized authorized boundaries of such government" For applicable law, we have done some work with respect to the the definition of "applicable law" but I am not sure whether there is any agreement on my proposed definition. Here is what I had proposed. Please note that I have not received feedback from the sub-team on this as of yet so this is just a proposal from me and to give the RT an update on our work so far. I am sure that Omar, Mikhael, and Lynn will be abel to speak to it further during the call tomorrow. "any and all State laws that regulate and/or control the collection, use, access, and disclosure of personally identifiable information and shall also include internationally recognized legal norms such as the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the U.N.Guidelines for the Regulation of Computerized Personal Data Files."

Hi everyone A reminder of our proposed agenda tomorrow (repeated below). I didn't receive any comments on it, but after sending it out, I had an exchange with Denise Michel who reminded me that her team are awaiting finalisation of the questions we'd like ICANN staff to answer for us, so I've added that as agenda item 6. According to our action plan, we will be publishing the call for public comment in the middle of February, so I would like us tomorrow to sign off on the definitions and any questions for that public comment. Please be reminded that the time of the call is now 14:00 UTC on Wednesday 16 February Best regards, Emily Objectives: 1. To finalise working definitions and questions for public comment (subteams C, D, E, F), to be published by 15 February. 2. To monitor progress on subteams A and B (Policy and Implementation), and set priorities for the teams for the coming months. Generally, as a rolling target, can we circulate papers by the end of the Monday before each call, to give everyone a chance to consider the issues in advance of the call. Agenda: 1. Roll Call and apologies 2. Adoption of meeting notes from last call 3. San Francisco draft agenda (comments and input from team 15 minutes - Kathy and I will post a draft by the beginning of next week). 4.

Call with SSAC Chair - notes
by Emily Taylor Feb. 11, 2011

Feb. 11, 2011

Dear all In preparation for the San Francisco meeting, and as agreed in our last call, we have been trying to arrange slots with the SO/ACs during the ICANN meeting. In preparation for this, I had a conversation this morning with Patrik Faltstrom, the Chair of ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) this morning. These are the key points that he would like us to be aware of in preparation for our meeting with SSAC in San Francisco, and (I think) an interesting take on why the underlying protocol is relevant to our discussions. Patrik has reviewed this note, and is happy for me to share it with you. Key messages: - It is important that the RT, in its deliberations, draws a distinction between discussions over WHOIS service and the underlying protocol. This distinction is summarised in the staff paper to the Cartagena meeting Technical Evolution of the Whois Service, which also reviews potential successor protocols, IRIS and RWS. - SSAC's focus has been to try to separate the discussion of the protocol from the discussion of the service and the various policies that are attached to each one of the two. So far SSAC has the view that there has been slow progress as still too much of the discussion in ICANN mix the two. The IETF has reviewed the existing whois protocol and developed (at least) one successor, IRIS, as described in the staff report. - For the RT's purposes, the relevance of the protocol is its impact on policy and its implementation. A useful focus from SSAC's perspective would be to enhance understanding about why better protocols have not enjoyed widespread adoption, and what role ICANN might play in supporting migration. SSAC's key documents, included in the background materials are: SAC 023 -- Is the WHOIS Service a Source for email Addresses for Spammers? (23 October 2007) SAC 027 -- SSAC Comment to GNSO regarding WHOIS studies (7 February 2008) SAC 033 -- Domain Name Registration Information and Directory Services (20 June 2008) SAC 037 -- Display and usage of Internationalized Registration Data: Support for characters from local languages or scripts (21 April 2009) SAC 038 – Registrar Abuse Point of Contact (25 February 2009) Best wishes, Emily 76 Temple Road, Oxford OX4 2EZ UK telephone: 01865 582 811 mobile: 07540 049 322 emily.taylor(a)etlaw.co.uk www.etlaw.co.uk
