Hello,

<div class="default-style">

<div class="default-style">
on behalf of the ID4me Association (gathering several ccTLD managers, domain registrars and other industry members), I would be interested to respond to the upcoming RFI, focusing on a specific aspect that only pertains to a subset of the questions in the scoping document, and more precisely on how to build a federated, distributed directory of identities that can then be subject to appropriate verification and authorized for access, and how to promote the use of the DNS at the same time.
<br>
</div>
<div class="default-style">
<br>
</div>
<div class="default-style">
Is there any additional information on the timeframe and format for the response that we can already know? How do I subscribe so that I am promptly informed when the RFI or additional information are published? Also, should the questions in the RFI focus on other aspects of the scoping document, would it rather make sense to have a separate discussion on the points above?
<br>

Thank you.
