In follow-up to this RDS PDP WG action item:<br><br>
<b><i>Action Item #4: </b>Form a small team (including those who
volunteered for leadership) to review the ICANN community participation
and expertise currently present in the WG and recommend where additional
outreach may be needed.<br><br>
</i>To initiate this, the PDP leadership team has asked that the
following task description, suggested approach, and resource links be
circulated to the PDP WG.<br><br>
During the last WG call, Karnika Seth, Holly Raiche, and Liz Williams
indicated their willingness to take on this task. Any other RDS PDP
WG members who would like to assist with this task are also welcome -

<b><u>Action Item 4 Task Description, Suggested Approach, and Resource
List<br><br>
</u>Task:</b> Review the ICANN community participation and
expertise currently present in the RDS PDP WG and recommend whether
additional outreach may be needed.<br><br>
<b>Suggested Approach:<br>
</b>1) List the diverse perspectives and
areas of expertise needed by the RDS PDP WG to achieve Phase 1
goals.<br>
2) Review this list against current WG
membership to identify any apparent gaps which may include review of SOIs
for further details.<br>
3) Recommend how those gaps might be filled
(e.g., outreach to specific Observers or ICANN SO/ACs).<br>
4) Present findings and recommendations to
the full WG during the WG's 16 &/or 23 February call.<br><br>
<b>Key Resources: </b>The following list of available resources
(extracted from this PDP WG’s wiki) may be especially useful for
completing this task:

Definitions for WHOIS Providers and Users (<i>attached, see below</i>)
</ul>Note that we have attached for easier reference the single page of
Definitions from the EWG’s RDS Risk Survey. This was a past effort to
list everyone who collects, stores, provides, or uses gTLD registration
data in some way, and thus might be impacted by a Next-Generation RDS.
While that Definitions list is not exhaustive and does not examine areas
of expertise, it may nonetheless be a helpful starting point.<br><br>
