[gnso-rds-pdp-wg] For your review - updated RDS Statement of Purpose

Folks,

Gotta chime in here, since the EWG provided a lot of thinking on this issue. If you haven’t already, please review the EWG report sections on data accuracy and also the concept of data validators and their relationship to the RDS.  For example, I would note that a well-provisioned RDS would be able to provide some sort of validation checks against existing data in the use case of trying to prevent impersonation (a form of accuracy) of an existing registrant (a big brand like Facebook for instance).  Another concept we found very important in the EWG is the idea of creating a contact data set tied to a contact ID that is portable between registrars and registries.  This provides for the purpose-based contacts we talk about at great length in the report.  It also is key for addressing some of the fundamental operational issues that lead to inaccurate, out-of-date data at various registrars.  If you have a change in your contact information (a new e-mail for instance) and hold multiple roles in conjunction with many domains, you have a real challenge making updates throughout the universe of your domain names.  Using a data validator and then acting via the RDS, when you make a change to your contact info, that automatically can be reflected in all domains you are associated with and thus improve accuracy tremendously.  Those are just a couple examples of how an RDS can be involved in dealing with accuracy issues and represent many of the concepts you can address once you look beyond the current paradigm of registrar controlled contact information anchored specifically to individual domain names.  Accuracy in the “generic” system (including registries, registrars, RDS, validators, some other group we haven’t thought of yet) is definitely in-scope.  How that is done can take many forms and could have different roles played by different participants in the entire ecosystem.

Cheers,

Rod

However, if we do recommend a new system, then improvements to data accuracy are very much on the table, as the charter provision quoted by Marika indicates.
