[RDS-WHOIS2-RT-Leadership_Staff] [RDS-WHOIS2-RT] CALL FOR CONSENSUS: Final Recommendations

[Alan Greenberg]

Stephanie,

I do appreciate the problem (I have also had to deal with the death of my father-in-law this week), but we need to get the report out. The current plan is to ship it out on the 15th. We *may* be able to defer to the following Monday, but that is about as far as we can go.

If necessary we will issue a revised version after the fact, but chances are the Board will send the report out for Public Comment once the initial version is received, so relying on a revision will be a bad plan.

Please review the recommendation so that we can include your position (and any minority report should you decide to issue one) in time to meet the deadline.

Alan

We are, sadly, working every day on the EPDP.  It is hard to focus on this when the other matter is more urgent.  Sorry for the delay.

Dear review team members,

While you review the final recommendations, we would like to remind you to confirm the operational input received (see attached) at the fourth face-to-face meeting was addressed and incorporated in the final recommendations.

In addition, we would like to highlight two items from final report recommendations that require your review:

Common interface recommendations do not seem to have taken into account the concerns around its implementation: “On recommendation 11.1 (common interface), based on the review team’s suggested implementation, it appears that the metrics and SLAs asked for in the recommendation are intended for use by ICANN org as mechanisms to proactively identify compliance issues. ICANN org would like to note that there are multiple reasons queries could return blank fields, or no results. It is not possible programmatically to determine the causes of these results. Additionally, per the Temporary Specification, gTLD registration data results could differ between registry and registrar outputs. Therefore, inconsistencies in registrar and registry gTLD registration data outputs are not necessarily compliance issues. ICANN org would also like to inform the RDS-WHOIS2 review team that the existing WHOIS look-up tool at whois.icann.org will be updated in the coming months with a new tool built on RDAP. It is possible and intended that the new tool would function in such a way that no data would be collected by ICANN org.”


On recommendation BY.1, the implementation note reads:



Implementation:

The RDS-WHOIS2 Review Team believes that this recommendation can be carried out by the ICANN Community, following the process foreseen by the current Bylaws Section 4.6(a)(v).

This section will need updating, as the process associated with suggested Bylaws amendments is documented in Article 25 of ICANN Bylaws ( https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article25 )


Kind regards,

Jean-Baptiste

Dear review team members,

Please also note the updated text on prioritization of recommendations presented on plenary call by Susan:


  *   High priority – These recommendations will ccreate the most impact and the review team found the actions recommended were critical to the WHOIS ecosystem.  The actions required may be complex and could involve in depth analysis and action.  Most involve community input which can be time consuming so the Board may wish to focus on these first.
  *   Medium priority – Theese recommendations are not quite complex as the high priority but could involve time consuming research and implementation.  Most require actions only by ICANN org so they should be implementable without much community input.
  *   Low priority – some of these reecommendations are dependent on other recommendations, call for limited actions or are deferred until other actions have been completed.


Kind regards,

Jean-Baptiste
