Is that correct? I didn't understand that at all. I thought that we
were still only talking about collection, and what data should be
collected beyond the already-determined minumum public data set.
Whether that should be published and how was, I thought, a later
question.
(Also, because I can't help myself in my nerdy quest about terminology
here, registrants do not register URLs. They register domain names.
Domain names are only a part of URLs, and only sometimes at that, and
I think we need to be clear what the limit of the domain of policy
discussion is.)

I think the reason that keeps coming up is because people are
attempting to apply the whois-model of the world to this discussion,
and are coming up with answers that correspond exactly to how whois
has evolved given the pressures on it. I think that is a mistake, but
it is nevertheless understandable.
Best regards,
