I am not sure that we should limit the study of IRIS viability to that of a
replacement of Whois. I did not understand in our call that this was the
recommendation that we were making. Without the analysis data I do not know
but, it might be that IRIS could function separate from whois solely to
provide registrant information to gaining registrars for the purpose of
IRTP. 

 

Can we change "The Working Group, recognizing that it is not specifically in
the remit of this Working Group to make any recommendations for Whois
modification, does support further assessment of whether IRIS would be a
viable option for the exchange of registrant email address data between
registrars once IRIS' costs, time of implementation and appropriateness as a
potential replacement of the WHOIS protocol are more fully understood." to

exchange of registrant email address data between registrars and recommends
an analysis of IRIS' costs, time of implementation and appropriateness for
IRTP purposes.

 

We could leave it up to any future Whois workgroup (pity those souls) to
determine whether IRIS should replace Whois, though the analysis data could
be useful for their purposes.

Dear All,

As discussed on our call today, an updated version of the draft Final Report
has been posted on the Wiki
(https://st.icann.org/irtp_jun08_pdp-wg/index.cgi?irtp_part_a_pdp_wg_pdp_jun
08) for your review. Please note that in relation to the IRIS references, I
have included the links to the relevant IETF materials instead of the SSAC
papers as the latter focus mainly on the Whois question. Please let me know
if you would also like to reference the SSAC papers (SAC 27 and 33). All the
latest changes have been redlined throughout the document. Please review the
document carefully and share your comments / suggestions with the list.

Thanks,

Marika
