[Gnso-ppsai-pdp-wg] definitions of relay, publication, reveal

Hi All,
Sorry not to be on the call, but I don't think that Gema's statement is 
a paraphrase of the RAA, particularly the idea of revealing the identity 
of the domain licensee upon reasonable evidence of actionable harm or 
risk liability for resulting harm. Terms of reference for a study are 
hardly RAA language (Note: I worked on many of the study's terms of 
reference -- but not on the RAA).

Best,
Kathy
