Proposed Recommendation:

a. There is no clear need for a new policy on the use of registry  
data, including traffic data, for purposes other then which is was  
collected.

b. There is, however, a need for exhaustive public study by an  
outside agency on the data collected and the uses to which it is put.

c. It is recommended that a best practices document be published as a  
guideline for Registry data collection and use

a. There is currently no clear need for a new policy on the use of  
registry data, including traffic data, for purposes other then which  
is was collected.  Based on the results of the exhaustive external  
study and public discussions recommended in 5a (b), the GNSO council  
should consider the creation of a PDP that would include policy  
recommendations for new, as well as for existing Registry agreements.
