[Gnso-epdp-team] ICANN org question response

[Leon Sanchez]

Hi Lindsay,

While I see your point, may I suggest that we focus on the items we’ve been working on in relation with? 

Access is definitely something we, as community, will need to address but for now my feeling of the discussions is that we have agreed to keep these topics (temp-spec and access) separate. I could be misinterpreting the general feeling, of course, and apologize in advance if I am in fact doing so. 

Kind regards,

Leon

However, when you state “maintenance of and access to accurate and up-to-date information concerning domain name registrations” is one of the topics on which ICANN may enforce consensus policies, who will have access and on what basis?  While I appreciate the ICANN may have the right to draft and enforce certain policies, any such policy must be in accordance with applicable law.  Isn’t that exactly what we are trying to do in this EPDP?

> QUESTION: Is making the natural vs legal distinction in WHOIS within the picket fence, i.e., a suitable topic for policy discussion?
> RESPONSE : Yes, access to gTLD registration data generally is one of the allowed topics for consensus policy as set forth in ICANN Bylaws and registry and registrar agreements. (That list of topics is referred to by some as “the picket fence”). Please refer to Annex G-1 and G-2 of the ICANN Bylaws as well as Specification 1 Section 1.3.4 of the Base Registry Agreement and the Consensus Policies and Temporary Policies Specification of the Registrar Accreditation Agreement, which provide that: “maintenance of and access to accurate and up-to-date information concerning domain name registrations” is one of the topics on which ICANN may enforce consensus policies.
