      Tx you for this update. It is much appreciated as are your efforts
      and all involved in this project. I would like to urge that ideas
      now be shared with all of us. Especially if a sticking point is "
      and that would include reasonable safeguards and procedures to
      protect the legitimate interests of customers of accredited
      proxy/privacy service providers" as indicated below, those of us
      who are customers and working with Registrant groups would like to
      be part of the discussion at this point. <br>
      <br>
      Just my thought - happy to hear others.  Safe travels to
      Singapore!<br>
      Best,<br>

            you know, several PPSAI Working Group members, including
            representatives of the IPC and privacy and proxy service
            providers, have endeavored to develop a collaborative
            proposal on the minimum standards for disclosure (Category
            F). The group’s work is not meant to obviate or displace the
            work of the larger group on this issue – rather, it is meant
            to constructively contribute to the discussion by producing
            one proposal on this issue for the larger group’s
            consideration. This is an update on this sub-group’s
            progress.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">But
            first, a little background: At the face-to-face meeting of
            the PPSAI Working Group in Los Angeles on October 10, 2014,
            one important topic was minimum standards for disclosure of
            contact information of customers of privacy/proxy services
            who may or may not be using their private domain name
            registrations to carry out infringing or other abusive

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">Prior
            to the face-to-face meeting, IPC participants in the Working
            Group circulated a proposal on this topic.  A responsive
            redline was circulated to the WG by Volker Greimann.   <o:p></o:p></span></p>

            extensive discussion of these proposals and of the topic in
            general at the face-to-face meeting, a sub-group of WG
            participants have continued this discussion.  The sub-group
            includes participants from the IPC and privacy/proxy service
            providers. Meeting by teleconference and working over
            e-mail, the sub-group has sought to develop a text that
            could be jointly presented to the PPSAI Working Group as a
            framework for further discussion on the issue of standards
            for disclosure.  <o:p></o:p></span></p>

            progress has been made, and the sub-group is continuing its
            efforts with the goal of producing a document for
            presentation to the PPSAI Working Group as soon after the
            Singapore ICANN meeting as feasible.  If such a document is
            completed, it is hoped that it would be a constructive
            contribution to eventual WG approval of a set of
            recommendations on “Category F” for inclusion in the Draft
            Report of the WG.

        <p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">Unlike
            the documents discussed by the full WG last October, the
            framework under discussion does not purport to establish a
            single general policy for when disclosure of contact
            information in cases of alleged abusive activities would be
            available.  Instead, it seeks to focus more narrowly on
            intellectual property infringement complaints as one
            illustrative example of minimum disclosure standards.  The
            framework would describe (1) a service provider process for
            intake of requests; (2) general templates that requests
            would have to meet in order to trigger service provider
            action; and (3) principles governing service provider action
            in response to a conforming request.  While considerable
            progress has been made in the first two areas, a number of
            critical issues remain to be resolved in the third area, and
            discussion has not been concluded on any of the areas.

        <p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">The
            expressed common goal of the discussion group participants
            is a framework that would give requestors a higher degree of
            certainty and predictability as to if, when and how they
            could obtain what level of disclosure; that would preserve
            for service providers a sufficient degree of flexibility and
            discretion in acting upon requests for disclosure; and that
            would include reasonable safeguards and procedures to
            protect the legitimate interests of customers of accredited
            proxy/privacy service providers.  Of course, balancing these
            interests is the difficult task before our working group. As
            stated, participants in the discussion group hope to be able
            to make a constructive contribution to the WG’s efforts to
            do so.  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
