Subject: RE: Names Council Resolution Regarding Whois
To ICANN Secretary:
The PSO-PC has thoughtfully addressed the Names Council resolution on the
assessment of Whois system and development of policy recommendations.
The PSO has no need for technical comments but encouraged its members, as
users, to reply to the survey conducted by the Names Council
(http://www.icann.org/dnso/whois-survey-en-10jun01.htm) and share their
expertise in the domain-name registration system.
Best regards,
Livia Rosu
PSO-PC Secretary

Subject: Names Council Resolution Regarding Whois
To the Protocol Council:
The Names Council of the DNSO is engaged in a study of Whois services,
with a view to possible development of policy recommendtions. On 29
July 2001, the Names Council passed a resolution inviting the Protocol
Council to contribute to this effort, in such a manner as the Protocol
Council deems appropriate. The text of the Names Council resolution is
as follows:
The Whois Committee of the ICANN Names Council is coordinating a
consultation process concerning Whois services presently provided
in connection with the domain-name registration system. The
current consultation process is due to conclude on the 31st July
2001 and more information may be found at
http://www.icann.org/dnso/whois-survey-en-10jun01.htm
Resolution:
The Names Council notes that its consultation process raises issues
that may be relevant to the policy areas concerning which the
Address and Protocol Supporting Organizations are primarily
responsible and that coordination among the supporting
organizations may be beneficial. The Names Council would welcome
collaboration with the Address and Protocol Supporting
Organizations and invites the Address Council and the Protocol
Council to contribute to the assessment of the Whois system and
the development of policy recommendations in such a manner as they
deem appropriate.
Best regards,
Louis Touton
ICANN Secretary
