Excelent! It’s the best way to get in touch with all that happened in the Whois process in the past.
 
Great job, thank you! I’ll start studying ASAP.

Hi Denise
 
As Kathy says, this is a great job.  Thank you for summarising the key inputs.  It is very helpful to have this way of navigating through the documents.

Hi Denise, Liz and Pam,
You have posted a mountain of Whois work accumulated across the years -- and organized it well.  I do not know how long it took you to pull all of this information together, but I am tremendously grateful. It is an archival asset for the Review Team, as well as a guide to current events.

Great appreciation!
Kathy

Dear Team members:

WHOIS Background Information has been posted on the wiki:
<https://community.icann.org/display/whoisreview/WHOIS+Background+Information>

It includes brief explanations and links to information organized by
the topics listed below.  With over a decade's worth of ICANN Whois
history to draw from, Liz Gasster, Pam Little and I tried to provide
you with key resources without overwhelming you.   As I noted
previously, we are expecting to fine tune and add to this wiki page,
based on Team members' needs.  Comments are encouraged!

Please let me know if we can be of further assistance.

Regards,
Denise

PS.  If you need assistance accessing or using the wiki, please
