          response that the data protection supervisors have been in
          discussions with the non-commercial users constituency since
          the birth of ICANN.  Rodota (the first Italian DPA, and second
          chair of the Article 29 group) wrote about ICANN  and WHOIS in
          1998.  The Berlin group (of data commissioners) posted their
          common position on WHOIS in 2000, the common position of the Article
          29 group was in 2003.  Buttarelli, then 2IC in Rome, came to
          the 2004 meeting (he referred to this in his remarks in
          Copenhagen).  The NCUC has been in regular contact with
          them....I speak without saying "we" here because I was the one
          that spoke at the privacy workshop in Vancouver, when I was
          Director of Policy at the Canadian DPA.....and it was Kathy Kleiman
          of the NCUC who invited the Commissioner, as I recall.  [The
          task was relegated to me because it was thought that I could
          better answer the questions, having crafted the first CIRA
          policy when I was working in the private sector.]</font></font></p>
    <p><font size="+1"><font face="Lucida Grande">Please John, read some
          of the back history.  This is a very long struggle over
          privacy in WHOIS, and the data commissioners are certainly not
          hearing about this for the first time.  Most of the DPAs who
          signed the original documents have retired and are now working
          together, loosely at a couple of think tanks.  The
          cybercrime-fighting   argument has always been extremely
          effectively represented in the debate by ICANN technical
          staff, the US Commerce department, and various other members
          of the security and technical community.   The DPAs are very
          aware of that aspect of the discussion. <br>
