>> *These high-level notes are designed to help PDP WG members navigate
>> through the content of the call and are not meant as a substitute for the
>> transcript and/or recording. The MP3, transcript, and chat are provided
>> separately and are posted on the wiki at:
>> https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw <https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw>
>> 1. Roll call / SOI*
>>
>>    - Roll call will be taken from Adobe Connect
>>    - Please remember to keep your SOIs up to date
>>
>>
>> *2. Review poll results *
>>
>>    - Refer to poll results posted at https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw
>>    - Result Summary: Option (b) had greatest support, followed by
>>    options (a) and (e). Just two respondents agreed with option (c) – no
>>    limitation by purpose, and two respondents stated that their answers
>>    differed for subsets of thin data elements. No support for option (d) –
>>    eliminating access to “thin data” entirely.
>>    - Consideration of poll results as a guide to find a productive path
>>    forward for deliberations
>>    - 90% of respondents through purpose should play some kind of role in
>>    policy for "thin data" - strong indication the WG should consider
>>    legitimate/illegitmate purposes. Why shouldn't policy take purpose into
>>    consideration?
>>    - Possible reasons: cost and effort involved in checking and
>>    enforcing purpose, limited benefit in return for that cost; not sure we can
>>    prevent sharing data after it was taken from the system; extra layers of
>>    access control may not be warranted for minimal data included in thin data
>>    - Reactions: May want to separate anonymous access from
>>    identification or authentication for access to thin data - may not want to
>>    allow anonymous access? Privacy policies may require authentication but
>>    that may lead to logging access which may not be desirable
>>    - Is the answer for thin data different than for other registration
>>    data? Purposes for thin data may be more technical, may not require PII,
>>    may pose less risk of abuse (and be dealt with using rate limiting, etc)
>>    because thin data includes few elements - so why should it be hidden? There
>>    are purpose(s) for thin data but access shouldn't be limited
>>    - The language used in the poll questions may have led to results
>>    that are farther apart than we really are - I didn't find options
>>    satisfactory so I wrote option (e) to include anonymous access without
>>    declaring a purpose. The wording implied access controls to check purpose,
>>    which is why (e) is closer to (c) than (a).
>>    - Re: "except for illegitimate purposes" - if someone does bad
>>    things, their access can be blocked - but what does that cost?
>>    - Two of the thin data elements are already accessible anonymously -
>>    name servers, domain name - so the set of thin data elements you might
>>    control access to is very small
>>    - How hard is it to authenticate requestors? Really hard for today's
>>    WHOIS or an open system
>>    - Even with this limited number of responses, we have opposing views
>>    about whether purpose should play an inclusive or exclusive role in “thin
>>    data” policy. But further deliberation on specific purpose(s) and thin data
>>    elements may uncover common ground.
>>    - We may be stumbling a bit over possible implementations when trying
>>    to visualize impact of potential policy requirements. For example, captive
>>    portal pages often offer both anonymous Internet access and authenticated
>>    access to more network resources – it is possible to implement both kinds
>>    of policies. While we need to consider whether implementation of potential
>>    policies is feasible, policy should drive implementation not the other way
>>    around
>>
>>
>> *3. Continue deliberation on question 2.1, focusing on thin data*
>>
>>    - Is there anyone who thinks we should not consider purpose at all?
>>    - *Agreement: Concluding that purpose is useful to consider further
>>    (without implying authentication, disclosure, or access control)..*
>>    - Refer to handout posted at https://community.icann.org/x/
>>    <https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw> i6TDAw
>>    <https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw>
>>    - What is the purpose of collecting thin data elements? Specifically:
>>    - What is the purpose of collecting the domain name's Sponsoring
>>    Registrar? It tells the registrant who is responsible for their domain name
>>    (but see note about Resellers below), required by policy to help facilitate
>>    registrar to registrar transfers; see also EWG pg 129-132 for purposes of
>>    any field
>>    - There's also a contractual line through the reseller to the
>>    registrar; may have an optional Reseller field for registrars who wish to
>>    avail themselves of it
>>    - What is the purpose of collecting the domain name registration's
>>    Status(es)?
>>    - Could put "thin data" elements into a few categories - (1)
>>    Registrar/URL, (2) operational data - Name Servers, (3) rest are metadata
>>    about the domain registration such as dates, status
>>    - Note that many thin data elements are not "collected" per se - the
>>    fields are populated but from the RDS/WHOIS perspective we refer to
>>    collection
>>    - *Agreement that for all thin data elements, there is at least one
>>    purpose for collection*
>>    - Referring to EWG report pages 129-131, the thin data elements are
>>    listed by purpose - are there comments on the purposes listed for "thin
>>    data" elements?
>>    - Noted that purposes listed by EWG were not comprehensive - but they
>>    were recommended as "permissible"
>>
>>
>> *Action:* Staff to launch poll to confirm two main points of agreement
>> and allow those not on call to weigh in; poll to remain open through the
>> holidays with results aggregated for use in next WG call 10 January
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> *4. Confirm next meeting date: Tuesday 10 January 2017 at 17.00 UTC *
>> *Meeting Materials: * https://community.icann.org/x/i6TDAw
