These are really two separate thread Tim -

One, whether or not the registries should continue to output expiration 
and create dates. The constituency position on this historically has 
been no. We can reopen this if you wish (it seems you do).

Two, whether or not registrars should assume additional disclosure 
responsibilities wrt to the functions associated with the new contacts 
in the proposal. The constituency has no position on this, but we should 
develop one fairly quickly.

 From a work management perspective, there's no reason to prioritize one 
over another (or sacrifice one for the other) in spite of the fact that 
specific registrars might be more concerned with one set of issues or 
another (i.e. tucows is more worried about additional disclosure 
requirements, godaddy seems more worried about where expiration dates live).

We should try to hash through some of these issues in advance of our 
meeting in Florida and try to close them off at that time.

Regards,
