<p class="MsoNormal">Hi James,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’d like to understand your request a bit better. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For many IP purposes, having a reliable email address is necessary to facilitate communication with the RNH, especially since web forms have proven insufficient for many of us. To the IP folks, contactability is an important reason for
our work on “the feasibility of requiring unique contacts to have a uniform anonymized
<b>email address</b>” (Temp Spec, emphasis added). I was concerned (or hopefully confused) to hear the RrSG assert that email contact was not necessary for IP purposes – I’d think we could either take the IPC’s word on that, or attempt to understand each other
better. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If we agree that some form of email address is needed, or that we need to understand each other better, let’s proceed accordingly. If not, I’d ask candidly whether we should expect the RrSG to join consensus on a (lawful) requirement to
provide an email contact, if the RrSG position is that email is not necessary and the RrSG is unwilling to discuss it further.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi folks –<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On last Thursday’s call, we spent a chunk of time discussing the merits/efficacy of various Registrar implementations of the Contact Relay requirement.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In my view, this is one of htose topics that our group can’t resist debating, and yet it is not within scope for our work in Phase 2A. Our calendar is extremely tight, and I would ask everyone (myself included) to try and avoid these “catnip”
topics that burn a lot of call time, but ultimately don’t end up anywhere.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Thanks—<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
J.<u></u><u></u></p>
