<<Thanks for the letter. I have already opened discussions on the  issue 
with my fellow NCUCers on it. I still have to check to make sure we  can 
meet on the 29th (this is probably the day most people will be arriving  
in Vancouver, most from very long trips) but will get back to as soon as  
I get some feedback from our colleagues.>>

Carlos and all:
As we have discussed a few times on this list, Tuesday, November 29th, from  
2-6:30 PM is our NCUC Privacy Conference.  The GAC meeting on the same  
subject was just canceled -- making our meeting now central (and pivotal) on  data 
protection and privacy in ICANN.
 
The Conference is shaping up wonderfully!  We have terrific speakers  from 
CIRA (.CA) and other country codes.  We are expecting at least one  Data 
Protection Commissioner.  The Registries and PIR are both co-sponsors  and 
supporters.  This a unique event for NCUC and we truly need all NCUCers  to support and 
attend our conference in order to make it a success!
 
Carlos, can we kindly avoid any conflict with the NCUC Privacy  Conference?
All, please come!!
 
Kathy

Building Bridges on ICANN’s Whois Questions
Privacy Conference at  Vancouver ICANN Meeting
Tuesday, November 29th,  2:00 PM - 6:30  PM
Sponsors:  Noncommercial Users Constituency, 
Public Interest  Registry & The Registry Constituency
Draft Agenda

Session I:   Data Protection Commissioners, ccTLDs and Registrars

This session invites  Data Protection Commissioners to discuss their data 
protection laws.  It  also profiles several ccTLDs and Registrars who have 
changed their Whois  procedures (or are in the midst of changing them) based on 
these laws.   What are the changes?  How are they working?  How do they allow  
personal data to be made available to those who need it?  (This session  will 
feature considerable time for questions and discussion with the  audience.)


Session II: Experts on Other Areas of Internet Privacy  

The Whois debate takes place within the larger context of Internet  privacy, 
but in the ICANN community we rarely refer to outside models.  How  do online 
service providers, ISPs and others handle requests for personal data  in other 
Internet areas, including chatroom and email identities?  What do  these 
models offer in our work on the Whois dilemma?


Session  III:  Registrars, Registries and NCUC Present Their New Plans for 
the WHOIS  Databases 

Registries, Registrar and Noncommercial Users Constituency  recently put 
forward different plans to change the gTLD Whois Database to  provide protection 
for personal data.  For the first time in a public  forum, they will present 
and discuss their proposals.  (Considerable time  for input and discussion with 
the audience planned.)  


Building  Bridges to the Public.  This Conference will reach out to civic and 
social  Internet-based organization throughout the world.  Attracting new  
organizations with their insights and concerns will help infuse the Conference  
and GNSO Whois process with a new level of interest and relevance.  

Questions/Suggestions.   If you have questions, suggestions  for speakers, or 
organizations you think should be invited, please contact  Kathryn Kleiman of 
the Noncommercial Users Constituency at  KathrynKl at aol.com.  

Open to All
