Dear Olivier, We know you are involved and leading some major and important trials in France. We hope they are going well and successfully.

We will miss your insight, guidance and wisdom.

FW: Discussion paper, draft final version [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
by Nettlefold, Peter June 9, 2011

June 9, 2011

Hi again, Well, I just printed it out and was about to put in a folder when I noticed another typo - a missing 'should' in the last question. Again, I've made the insertion in track. Hopefully that's it from me. Cheers, Peter From: rt4-whois-bounces(a)icann.org [mailto:rt4-whois-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Nettlefold, Peter Sent: Thursday, 9 June 2011 12:01 PM To: Olof Nordling; rt4-whois(a)icann.org Subject: Re: [Rt4-whois] Discussion paper, draft final version Hi all, Thanks for sending this through so quickly Olof, and thanks to all for contributing to what has become a very good paper. In reading it just now, I noticed a tiny typo in last night's additions (a double space, and also I think a missing 'the'). I also noticed that the applicable laws/privacy heading was sitting at the bottom of a page while all the content was on the next page. I fixed those in track, and I hope they're as uncontroversial as they seemed to me. The only other thing I noticed is two unfinished sentences in the intro which were placeholders for a closing date for submissions and an address to send submissions. I couldn't remember if we'd already discussed this, so I just highlighted the sentences yellow so that they get sorted before it's sent out. Other than that, it all looks good to me and I look forward to seeing responses as they come in.

Update on budget request (was Re: WHOIS Review Team meeting slot with the Board in Singapore)
by Emily Taylor June 8, 2011

June 8, 2011

Dear Peter Further to your exchange of e-mails with Olof, I have now had the opportunity to discuss with the Review Team our proposal to meet with the Board during the Singapore meeting. Taking account of your other commitments, the Review Team does not consider it essential to meet face to face with the Board at this point. We will of course be happy to provide you with an update on our work, and would welcome board members' input into our Issues Paper which we signed off for publication today. However, one urgent matter which is now hindering our progress is our budget request, which was sent to you on 12 May 2011. On 13 May, you sent an acknowledgement, but since then we have received no information as to the status of our request, or when it will be handled. Please would you confirm that our request is on the agenda of the Finance Committee and will be considered at its next meeting, and give an indication of when we should expect to hear the Committee's decision. Also, should the Finance Committee have any questions or require any clarification, the Review Team will be happy to provide it. Kind regards Emily Taylor PS Please note my correct e-mail address.

some small suggestions regarding your draft Discussion Paper
by Liz Gasster June 8, 2011

June 8, 2011

Dear All, I am suggesting some very small edits to the "clarity of existing policy" section of your draft Discussion Paper on page 4, and to the first two questions on your list. I think that the current language regarding consensus policies and the ICANN PDP may be slightly difficult for commenters to understand, and I hope to make the related questions clearer as well. I am sorry that I cannot participate on your upcoming call to answer questions but I am happy to explain further via email. Best regards, Liz Liz Gasster Senior Policy Counselor ICANN
