RE: [gnso-whois-wg] Draft final report Whois group v 1.5

["Milton L Mueller" <mueller@xxxxxxx>]

Philip and all:

I must strongly object that the Whois report on lines 490-494. This is simply 
an accurate characterization of all discussions held so far. 

The objectionable text reads:

"There were circumstances where both LEAs and private actors must have access 
described above (6.2, 6.3, 6.4). These circumstances include suspected 
terrorist, fraudulent or other illegal activity, suspected consumer harm and 
suspected intellectual property infringement. (An alternate view was that 
private actors should be denied bulk access described under 6.4 in all 
circumstances.)"

This statement has the actual support levels reversed. There was agreement for 
the idea that LEAs and LEAs ONLY should have 6.3 access, and some support for 
the view they should have 6.4 access.

There was AGREEMENT that private actors should NOT have 6.4 access. 
This is clearly stated in the report of subgroup b. There has been no change in 
the level of support on this matter. 

I must demand that this part of the report be changed to reflect the actual 
discussions we had, and am disappointed that I even have to point this out.
