Regarding Q 5) on consumer trust, I'd be happy to learn whether there was a common understanding about the meaning or definition of that term, amongst the signatories of the AoC? If this was or is the case I'd suggest to ask for sharing that background with the RT. Wilfried. lynn@goodsecurityconsulting.com wrote:

Dear All,

Here are suggested questions for our call with Lawrence Strickling and Fiona Alexander from the US Department of Commerce.

Any additional questions or feedback from all team members are welcome. I would ask that we agree on a final draft before conveying.

1) In considering the Affirmation of Commitments between the US Dept of Commerce and ICANN, is there general advice or guidance you would like to offer us as we plan our review work on Whois policy?

2) Do you have any particular concerns about Whois policy or implementation in its current state?

3) As clarification on our scope of work, in the course of our review, if we see opportunities to improve current Whois policy, would you expect us to include that information in our draft recommendations for public comment?

4) Also as clarification on our scope of work, would you expect us to consider groups who rely on Whois data who do not fit into the category of law enforcement or consumers? Two examples are the AntiPhishing Working Group and parties involved in the Uniform Dispute Resolution Process.

5) Would you expand on the concept of "consumer trust" and its priority in our review?
