-----Original Message----- From: "Bruce Tonkin" <Bruce.Tonkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Council GNSO" <council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: 8/12/06 1:05 AM Subject: [council] Implementation of procedure on national laws vs Whois - solliciting views from SOs and ACs August 2006 To Chairpersons of ICANN Supporting Organisations and Advisory Committees: On 10 May 2006, the ICANN Board adopted a resolution to, "implement a GNSO recommendation on a procedure for handling potential conflicts between Whois requirements and national privacy laws." (See, http://www.icann.org/minutes/minutes-10may06.htm). The resolution and background information are provided in the attached document. ICANN staff is currently planning the implementation phase as requested by the Board. In this process, the Board has directed staff "to develop and publicly document a procedure for dealing with such conflicts, taking into account the advice of the GNSO and any other interested ICANN Supporting Organization or Advisory Committee". (The advice received to date from the GNSO is found in the attachment.) Please consult with your organization about this matter and provide to ICANN staff any advice your organization may wish to submit concerning this issue. You may send the information directly to me at <pritz@xxxxxxxxx>. ICANN staff pan to commence implementation two month from now; responses received by then will receive full consideration. Responses received after one month will be accommodated in the implementation in everyway possible and staff will work with the ICANN community in the future to assess effectiveness and discuss changes if needed. For committees/organisations where providing feedback in the two-month timeframe is difficult, ICANN staff will offer to facilitate responses through one-on-one contacts with interested committee/organisation members. Please write with any questions or concerns you may have in responding to this letter. Thank you in advance for your attention in this matter. Sincerely, Kurt Kurt Pritz ICANN 4676 Admiralty Way, #330 Marina del Rey, California USA Attachment:
