<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_MailEndCompose">Dear Lisa and Chuck and everyone:<o:p></o:p></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">I am wondering if this poll may be of limited utility because we may be using the wrong words here, and the group may not share a crucial common vocabulary.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">All four options ask about “authentication” but we have not defined what that means. Authentication is different from “anonymous” access, and anonymous access is what we may actually be trying
to discuss. Note that the EWG recommended “anonymous” access for thin data. The distinctions are crucial. Authenticated access is not really anonymous, and the two terms tend to be mutually exclusive.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">So, can we please define those terms?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">Also, please note that the poll options use the term “should” -- but I think the word “must” was meant instead. “Must” indicates something mandatory, a requirement. “Should” does not mean
a thing is required or mandatory – it is a recommendation or opinion that can be ignored.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">There is a standard reference we can use. The terms MAY, MUST, MUST NOT, REQUIRED, SHALL, SHOULD and SHOULD NOT are defined in RFC 2119. (
</span><a href="https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt</span><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"></span></a><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"> ) RFC 2119 defined
those terms for use in all subsequent RFCs. The EWG was careful to use the above terms according to RFC 2119 (see Final Report, page 18). ICANN registry contracts, the TMCH RPM Requirements, and other ICANN efforts have also used RFC 2119 as a definitional
document. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose">Clear definitions and choices of words really matter in policy-making, and can help us all understand each other. I’m also noting this stuff in email because the poll doesn’t have a notes or comments
field.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
