>>Excerpt from WhoisTF123 Terms of Reference;
>>(1) ...the purpose of the WHOIS service in the context of 
>>ICANN's mission and relevant core values, international and 
>>national laws protecting privacy of natural persons, 
>>international and national laws that relate specifically to 
>>the WHOIS service, and the changing nature of Registered Name Holders.

>>(2) ...the purpose of the Registered Name Holder, technical, 
>>and administrative contacts, in the context of the purpose of 
>>WHOIS, and the purpose for which the data was collected. Use 
>>the relevant definitions from Exhibit C of the Transfers Task 
>>force report as a starting point (from 
>>http://www.icann.org/gnso/transfers-tf/report-exhc-12feb03.htm):
>>
>>"Contact: Contacts are individuals or entities associated 
>>with domain name records. Typically, third parties with 
>>specific inquiries or concerns will use contact records to 
>>determine who should act upon specific issues related to a 
>>domain name record. There are typically three of these 
>>contact types associated with a domain name record, the 
>>Administrative contact, the Billing contact and the Technical contact.
>>
>>Contact, Administrative: The administrative contact is an 
>>individual, role or organization authorized to interact with 
>>the Registry or Registrar on behalf of the Domain Holder. The 
>>administrative contact should be able to answer non-technical 
>>questions about the domain name's registration and the Domain 
>>Holder. In all cases, the Administrative Contact is viewed as 
>>the authoritative point of contact for the domain name, 
>>second only to the Domain Holder.
>>
>>Contact, Billing: The billing contact is the individual, role 
>>or organization designated to receive the invoice for domain 
>>name registration and re-registration fees.
>>
>>Contact, Technical: The technical contact is the individual, 
>>role or organization that is responsible for the technical 
>>operations of the delegated zone. This contact likely 
>>maintains the domain name server(s) for the domain. The 
>>technical contact should be able to answer technical 
>>questions about the domain name, the delegated zone and work 
>>with technically oriented people in other zones to solve 
>>technical problems that affect the domain name and/or zone.
>>
>>Domain Holder: The individual or organization that registers 
>>a specific domain name. This individual or organization holds 
>>the right to use that specific domain name for a specified 
>>period of time, provided certain conditions are met and the 
>>registration fees are paid. This person or organization is 
>>the "legal entity" bound by the terms of the relevant service 
>>agreement with the Registry operator for the TLD in question."
