[gnso-contactinfo-pdp-wg] Straw poll on number of options

Jumping in here, just to say that under the 2013 RAA the validation of 
contact info is already mandatory for registrars, requiring them to 
validate all required fields are present and that all data conforms to 
the right format. So I am not sure where you are leading with this issue 
that I see as completely out of scope for this WG.

As an aside, validation is a completely useless exercise and waste of 
time and money as any criminal will just need to reach for the next 
phone book for a list of perfectly accurate verifyable contact details. 
As a registrar, I feel comfortable stating that this is now the norm for 
abusive registrations and there is no way to prevent this with any 
amount of validation.

Best,

Volker
