                <br>
                Hi <br>
                <br>
                I went to bed last night thinking that we were nearly in
                agreement on the proxy recommendations that James, Susan
                and Kathy have been working on over the past weeks.<br>
                <br>
                In the middle of the night, I awoke to find new text on
                the table.<br>
                <br>
                You all know that our cut off date was yesterday, and we
                are now on negative time.&nbsp; However, I do want to go
                through the time zones so that we all have a chance to
                consider the options.&nbsp;
                <br>
                <br>
                Broadly, we have three alternatives.&nbsp; <br>
                <br>
                1. Adopt the very brief text agreed in Dakar and no more<br>
                2. Adopt the relatively stable text drafted by that
                small group which includes good practices<br>
                3. Adopt the new text, drafted last night by Seth on
                behalf of another small team.<br>
                <br>
                We act by consensus.&nbsp; But we also have a deadline.&nbsp; I'm
                therefore going to call it before I go to sleep tonight,
                and in default of an alternative agreement we will have
                to go back to what we agreed in Dakar.&nbsp; I know that some
                people are not happy with it, but it has a simplicity,
                and avoids confusion about whether or not the good
                practices conflicts with the idea of liability.<br>
                <br>
                Alternatively, we can adopt different text, but it has
                to be by consensus.&nbsp; Remember, folks, that's difficult
                to achieve, and leaves everyone feeling a little bit
                frustrated, and like they could have got more if they
                pushed harder.<br>
                <br>
                Please try to bear in mind that we have a very, very
                strong full report.&nbsp; This is one part of the whole
                puzzle, which has to be seen within its own context.&nbsp;
                There will be further studies on proxies/privacy.&nbsp; There
                will be another review team on WHOIS which will kick off
                in less than 2 years.&nbsp; To speak for a moment in support
                of voluntary good practices, this is a well known
                regulatory step.&nbsp; It's what you do when you're not happy
                with the current situation (check), but you're not quite
                sure what will be an effective regulatory intervention
                (check).&nbsp; So, you explore the landscape - as I think the
                draft recommendations (alternative 2 below) very
                eloquently do.&nbsp; I should emphasise that good practices
                are not the final word.&nbsp; They are an interim plug, a
                step in the right direction.&nbsp; If, having gone through
                that, Bill and others are right and it's all still a
                mess, that's when you go for the next incremental step -
                but the important bit is, industry has been given a
                chance to clean out the stables after being told in no
                uncertain terms that there's a problem . That's where we
                are now.&nbsp; <br>
                <br>
                The third choice is that we adopt the new text, maybe
                with tweaks or changes.&nbsp; If that's what we're doing, I
                would be failing in my duties as your Chair if I did not
                set some deadline for this.&nbsp; We have known the issues
                for a long time, we have been wrestling with them, and
                reaching consensus is hard.&nbsp; I don't think that this is
                a case of "just a bit more time", but I'm very willing
                to be proved wrong.<br>
                <br>
                So, my challenge to you is - tell me what you have <b>all</b>
                agreed on proxies by 10pm UTC.&nbsp; If the answer is
                "nothing" we go with what we agreed in Dakar.<br>
                <br>
                Whatever the outcome, we have done a wonderful job on
                this report.&nbsp; Take it in its entirety, it represents a
                lot of work, and a lot of willpower and cooperation,
                plus - importantly - a willingness to step outside of
                one's individual, commercial interests and think about
                the public interest.&nbsp; I have been marvelling at the
                sheer energy that has been focused on this mailing list
                and the incredible progress we have made since the
                weekend&nbsp; (remember, I'm a Brit, not American, so I don't
                say these sort of things easily!).<br>
                <br>
                Keep up this discussion.&nbsp; But please focus your thoughts
                and exchanges on the give and take that's necessary for
                consensus.<br>
                <br>
                To assist those who may not be fully up to speed, the
                text for the three alternatives are below.&nbsp; Whatever
                happens, we are closing this discussion in just under 7
                hours.&nbsp; Good luck!<br>
                <br>
                Kind regards<br>
