<div class="moz-cite-prefix">But Mary, the questions could indeed be
a bit less one-sided. We did also talk about a) the German law
that requires identification of appropriate businesses and their
locations (but not all organizations raising funds for any
reason); b) the limited mandate and scope of ICANN; c) the
difficulty of distinguishing across the spectrum and not treating
a mom-owned home business like an Amazon. <br>
<br>
It seems like a simple question into you dive into the
complexities... and that's what I think Stephanie and I and others
would like to shed light on -- even and especially in this Interim
Report. <br>
<br>
Best,<br>

<div>
<div>To add to Stephanie’s note that this specific issue -
whether registrants of domain names actively used for
commercial transactions ought to be disallowed from using
P/P services - had been discussed at some length by the WG:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please note that this part of the Initial Report draws
heavily on the detailed WG template for Charter Category C
that was the basis for the WG’s deliberations on this topic.
That template contains lengthy descriptions of what had
previously been termed the majority and minority positions
on the WG’s answer to this specific issue. As part of the
WG’s deliberations – which took place primarily between
April and June 2014 - the more specific formulation of
“transactional” to describe the sort of commercial (i.e.
Involving financial transactions) activities that were being
discussed was included in the language. All the templates
and suggested formulations discussed by the WG are recorded
and published on the WG wiki.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The WG ultimately agreed to retain the two positions in
the Initial Report and to revisit the question during its
review of the public comments received. As noted previously,
the WG's views were presented to the community in London in
June 2014 and again in Los Angeles in October 2014.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Therefore, the three questions in Section 1.3.3 of the
Executive Summary <u>only</u> go toward soliciting
community input on this single issue. They were not intended
to represent a view of any “side” in the WG with regard to
this matter. If the WG prefers, we can add a sentence to
clarify and specify the reason for the questions in Section
1.3.3. Fundamentally, the idea is that public comments will
facilitate the WG’s eventual resolution of this issue as
part of its preparation of the Final Report. </div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We hope this reminder of the background is of
assistance.</div>

James, prior to you joining the group, we had discussed
this at some length. IN fact, I really thought that the
many reasons why sorting out the purpose of a registration
is problematic had buried this debate, but apparently
not. Some of the issues raised, according to my
recollection were the following:<br>
<ul>
<li>names are registered prior to decisions about
content </li>
<li>content changes over time </li>
<li>most countries regulate e-commerce in some fashion,
so that website commercial activity does not have to
be regulated by ICANN
</li>
<li>ICANN should not be in the business of regulating
content in the first place (and sorting out who is
extracting a material consideration from a website in
order to deny them the ability to use a proxy
registration is certainly a form of regulation)
</li>
<li>definitions of commercial activity vary widely
around the world<br>
</li>
<li>bad actors will not declare, registrars cannot
police this matter </li>
<li>criminal prosecution is not dependent on WHOIS
information </li>
<li>if this is really about the ability to detect market
information, ICANN should not be in the business of
making registrant information available for market
purposes, it does it for security and stability.
</li>
<li>contactability remains, regardless of which
registrant info appears in WHOIS </li>
</ul>
<p>I am planning to reformulate these into questions to
match the questions on the other side, suggestions
welcome.
<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span
lang="EN-GB">Thanks to all WG members for a
very productive call earlier today(and to
Steve for his chairing acumen). The co-chairs
and staff met this afternoon to tie down two
loose ends from the call.<br>
<br>
Regarding the deadline for public comments on
the Initial Report, we recognize there is
considerable support for extending the public
comment period to 60 days instead of the
standard 40 days on which we have all been
planning. We are prepared to agree to this,
but with the caveat that this will have
repercussions on the pace and intensity of our
work once public comments have been received.
Specifically, if the public comment deadline
is extended until July 3 (60 days after our
publication date of May 4), we will need to
plan on at least weekly calls throughout July
and August, some of which may need to be more
than an hour in length, to review these
comments and move toward a Final Report.
Otherwise, we jeopardize the prospects for
getting the Final Report in front of the GNSO
council no later than the Dublin ICANN
meeting. As was noted on the call today, many
additional steps need to take place even after
this WG issues its Final Report before any new
accreditation system can be implemented, so
the time pressure imposed by the expiration of
the Interim Specification at the end of next
year is already real.
<br>
<br>
Also, as previously announced over the past
few weeks, if any WG members (or group of
members) wish to submit a brief separate or
additional statement for inclusion in the
package posted for public comment next Monday,
such statements need to be received by staff
no later than Thursday, April 30. <br>
<br>
Lastly, the other loose end involves proposed
revisions to section 1.3.3 of the Initial
Report, which were presented on the call
earlier today but which we did not have time
to discuss fully. We agree that this section
could benefit from some revision, but believe
it should take the form of greater concision,
not additional presentation of arguments for
the divergent positions. Thus we suggest that
section 1.3.3 be revised to read as follows:

style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"
lang="EN-GB">Although the WG agreed that the
mere fact that a domain name is registered
by a commercial entity or by anyone
conducting commercial activity should not
preclude the use of P/P services , there was
disagreement over whether domain names that
are actively used for commercial
transactions (e.g. the sale or exchange of
goods or services) should be prohibited from
using P/P services. While most WG members
did not believe such a prohibition is
necessary or practical, some members
believed that registrants of such domain
names should not be able to use or continue
using proxy or privacy services.<br>
<br>
For those that argued that it is necessary
and practical to limit access to P/P
services to exclude commercial entities, the
following text was proposed to clarify and
define their position: “domains used for
online financial transactions for commercial
purpose should be ineligible for privacy and
proxy registrations.”<br>
<br>
Public comment is therefore specifically
invited on the following questions: </span><o:p></o:p></p>
