RE: [gnso-dow123] Final Preliminary TF Report on purpose ofWhois & Whois contacts

["Maria Farrell" <maria.farrell@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

A few words by way of explanation for the task force vote. 

The task force vote is to approve the report as a whole (i.e. not to endorse
a particular formulation) and it's necessary to allow the report to move to
the public comments stage.  

At one of the task force meetings pre-Vancouver, it was decided to get
public comments on the formulations to help the task force move ahead with
them.  I have a vague notion that that might have been Marilyn's idea, but
in any case, the task force all agreed that this would be the most helpful
thing to do at this point.

So we're now at the point in the process where the staff manager has
compiled the preliminary task force report, and the task force needs to vote
to approve the report and publish it for public comments.

All the best, Maria

I have to seize this rare opportunity to agree with Steve. The report as it
stands states which constituency supports which Whois purpose formulation.
What would we be voting on?

Why are we voting?  Doesn't the report already state which constituency
supports which formulation?   I thought the idea was to have a
preliminary report that we would support unanimously.

Thanks, Maria.

I'd also like to kick off voting by e-mail in the hopes we can get it
wrapped up rapidly as well.

Please send to Maria and myself (and the list if you'd like) an e-mail
indicating whether you support one or the other of the formulations, or
both, or neither.  We will log each participating task force members'
vote and include it with the published report.
