(I am planning to be in Toronto for the event and look forward to attending)</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br></div><div id="AppleMailSignature">The proposal looks great and i pretty much agree with the need for rephrasing the two sections with regards to our views as ncuc on privacy issues. I cannot help with wording but i am sure you can find a more neutral way or saying what you have in mind in other words (less confrontational).</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br></div><div id="AppleMailSignature">I would also suggest you plan on including folks from the EU (if at all possible) on the panel as to have a balanced one, allowing to have all the views on the table for discussion. And whenever possible, to have it balanced (mostly regionaly).</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br></div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Regards,</div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Arsene<br><br><div>-----------------</div><div>Arsène Tungali,</div><div><a href="http://about.me/ArseneTungali">about.me/ArseneTungali</a></div><div>+243 993810967</div><div>GPG: 523644A0</div><div>Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo</div><div><br></div>Sent from my iPhone (excuse typos)</div><div><br>On Sep 23, 2017, at 10:57 PM, Ayden Férdeline <<a href="mailto:icann@ferdeline.com">icann@ferdeline.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><div>Hi all,<br></div><div><br></div><div>Proposals are now open for RightsCon in Toronto next May.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Enforcement of the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) begins a week later, on 25 May, so I am thinking this could be a unique opportunity for us to pitch something to do with GDPR and ICANN's efforts (or lack thereof) to bring WHOIS into compliance with it.<br></div><div><br></div><div>I have drafted a proposal on Google Docs. <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tN5pcshMALh5o6tOYpWxaN2__5ypPxObbsq2RiI5gYM/edit?usp=sharing" title="You can see it here" rel="nofollow">You can see it here</a>, and please feel welcome to make edits or to suggest additional/different speakers.<br></div><div><br></div><div>If there is support for this proposal, once more refined, I will seek permission from the EC to submit it.
