[Rt4-whois] Public Forum slides

[Emily Taylor]

Hi all

Can I join Bill in saying a big thank you to Kathy and Alice for producing
an excellent slide deck.  Having now given versions of this presentation a
few times, I think it will fit into a roughly 40 minute slot.  I don't
propose to read out every word of every recommendation, but merely skip
through the main headings - for example there are about 4 or 5 on data
accuracy, which simply expand on the principal one about improving data
quality.   Similarly, the privacy and proxy recommendations are quite
detailed, as are the IDN ones.  It's probably appropriate to have the full
wording on the slide deck so it's there as a record, but I wouldn't be
reading out every word.

What I really like here is the way that the findings are matched to
recommendations, which makes the flow much better than earlier versions,
and I like the pictures.  One minor point is that the bottom segment of the
coloured blocks is light blue with white writing, which might be difficult
to read on a screen - so Alice, please would you look at alternative
colours of text or shading (personally, I like the blue and black or dark
grey writing would work).

Thanks again, Kathy,

Emily
