<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Steve, Graeme and all who worked on
this draft,<br>
<br>
Tx you! We appreciate your effort and leadership. Quick note that
this is a lot of material to review in a short period of time. I
am hoping that today it will be possible for you to walk us
through the material in detail - including some of the meanings
and intents of bracketed sections. <br>
<br>
That would be very helpful for those of us trying to parse this
material before we enter into formal discussion! <br>
Best,<br>
Kathy<br>

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">This
follows up on our note of Feb. 3 providing a status report
on subgroup discussions among some IP interests and p/p
service providers regarding p/p disclosure standards. To
reiterate, the group’s work is not meant to obviate or
displace the work of the larger PPSAI WG 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. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">In
light of further consideration and of the need to move
forward the WG discussion on Category F, we present the
attached document that we hope will help provide a framework
for discussion of the disclosure issue in the WG. We
emphasize that this is not a proposal from IPC, the
Registrar Stakeholder Group, or any subset of either, and
that we fully anticipate the text to be modified and
improved through further discussion at the WG level. (We
also acknowledge that the WG may find the proposal wholly
unsatisfactory but hope that it will at least help advance
debate.)

attached is put forward as a starting point, to use
intellectual property infringement complaints as one
illustrative example of minimum disclosure standards, in a
framework that addresses (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. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Dear
WG colleagues,
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">As
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>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";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
activities.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";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>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Following
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>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Some
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.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";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.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";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>
