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
