        To GNSO Council
         
        Dear Sirs,
         
        I have been informed that On October 31, 2007, ICANN's policy advisory 
body (the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council) will vote on 
three motions that will determine the future structure of the domain name and 
Whois system.
         
        The Whois system is important for trademark owners because it is used 
daily by law enforcement, businesses and consumers to manage domain names, 
perform due diligence, protect intellectual property rights, and locate and 
contact the true owners of problematic web sites. In many cases, free open 
access to domain name ownership information is a prerequisite for taking swift 
legal action that can prevent Internet fraud and other schemes that confuse and 
deceive the public in the Internet marketplace.
         
        Therefore GNSO Council is requested to adopt Motion 2 and to reject 
Motions 1 and 3.
         
        Yours faithfully,
        Noëlle L. Wolfs
