    <p>Yes, absolutely nameservers need to be available for anyone
      unless you are going to force fundamental changes to DNS.  When
      you type a domain in your browser, your computer needs to know
      what nameservers to go to in order to figure out what the IP is. 
      It has to be exposed to everyone.  Whether it is in WHOIS is
      optional, but it needs to be exposed via the gTLD.  There is no
      mechanism in the protocol to allow for a middle man.  I suppose
      you could invent a DNS proxy and make the gTLDs run it but it
      would still require fundamental changes in DNS and likely would
      end the decentralized nature of it.<br>

              Grande&quot;">I am not sure how we get to this
              discussion.  What I am saying, is that the purpose of
              collecting data has to be linked to ICANN's core mission. 
              AS Peter said a while ago, is the core mission to enable
              law enforcement investigations? No.  It is a legitimate
              purpose to use or disclose limited sets of data as
              required in accordance with law, but it is not the reason
              we collect or generate thin data.  This distinction is
              important in data protection law.  Nobody is saying we
              should not disclose the thin data, including name
              servers.  What we are trying to say, and obviously with
              very little success, is that several of the purposes for
              collecting thin data which were in the last poll, were not
              related to ICANN's core mission.  They might be legitimate
              disclosures of data, but they are not legitimate purposes
              to collect.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
          <p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:&quot;Lucida
              Grande&quot;">Displaying data in WHOIS is a disclosure. 
              We are not supposed to be talking about that yet.  We keep
              conflating the legitimacy of collection, and why we gather
              or generate data elements about a domain name, and
              disclosure.  </span><o:p></o:p></p>
          <p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:&quot;Lucida
              Grande&quot;">Sorry to keep hammering on this, but it is a
              very simple concept that is fundamental to data
              protection.  No wonder we have been arguing about this for
              18 years.....</span><o:p></o:p></p>

                      Michele, some might argue that the registration
                      period is also collected from the registrant and
                      is then used to generate the expiration date at
                      the registry. A case might also be made for status
                      values like clientTransferProhibited etc. I agree
