Dear All,
Please note that in the recently published ICANN report on a DNS Security Survey, one of the main themes is:

"Almost all the respondents who answered named WHOIS as the mechanism to identify outreach 
points of contact despite weaknesses in the accuracy of WHOIS data."

The quote above is Item 4. under the section titled "Main Themes" and the complete report is available now on the home page of ICANN.org

Recommending that we capture this point in our work to identify stakeholders in Whois policy.

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year! and look forward to meeting you all in London.
Best regards,
Lynn
