FYI
Please join if you can. I shall be on a Eurostar train, and so will disappear for about 20 minutes during the journey. So, if any of you can make it (I know it's an early hour for our US colleagues), that would be great.
Kind regards
Emily

Item 3: Update Whois Review Team (RT) (10 minutes)
Recent events like the recent National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) letter
http://www.icann.org/en/correspondence/strickling-to-crocker-03jan12-en.pdf
show that Whois remains very much in the spotlight. It therefore appears useful for the Council to have an update from the Whois RT so that the Council has a clearer idea of what potential policy development it might be called to work on in the near future
The Chair of the Whois RT has kindly agreed to participate in this meeting and provide an update.

Item 8: Outreach Task Force Charter (20 minutes)
As part of the GNSO improvements, the Operations Steering Committee (OSC)'s Constituency and Stakeholder Group Operations Work Team worked on a set of recommendations on a global outreach program
The Council has considered motions on this recently been no agreement has been found. As the original request came from the ICANN Board, the Council leadership feels an answer should be provided. That answer may be not to approve, to approve, or to determine that the Council as a body does not want to voice an opinion, although specific GNSO SGs and Cs are obviously still free to.
The Council ledareship suggests that is that this topic be discussed at the GNSO week-end sessions in the forthcoming ICANN International Meeting in March 2012. To set the scene for these discussions, this agenda item is to provide some historical context into this topic.
8.1 Update and presentation from staff (Liz Gasster)
8.2 Discussion
Item 9: Whois Accessibility (20 minutes)
The GNSO Council resolved at its meeting on 6 October to request the Whois Survey Drafting Team to consider including the issue of WHOIS Access as recommended by the RAP WG as part of the survey it has been tasked to develop. The Whois Survey Drafting Team provided its response to the GNSO Council on 10 January (see http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg12559.html) noting that 'the WSWG determined inclusion of the RAPWG’s recommendation aligned more with policy and thus the WSWG considered it to be out of scope'. In addition, the WSWG provided the GNSO Council in its response with additional information 'so that it may make a better informed decision about the access recommendation'.
9.1 Response of WGWS (Wendy Seltzer, Council Liaison to WSWG

Subject: Re: Whois RT update
My goodness! What a coincidence. I was on the point of writing to you to suggest a briefing with Council.
I would be very happy to join a call and perhaps if you let me know the timings I can throw the invitation open to other members of the Whois Review Team, in case they are also able to make the call.
Kind regards and best wishes for the New Year
Emily
