> Dear Mr. Drake,
> 
> As you may recall, in December 2012, ICANN announced the creation of an Expert Working Group (EWG) on gTLD Directory Services, as a first step in fulfilling the ICANN Board’s directive to help redefine the purpose and provision of gTLD registration data. The work of the EWG is expected to serve as a foundation to help GNSO create a new global policy for gTLD directory  services, as part of a Board requested Policy Development Process (PDP) to be commenced upon the conclusion of the EWG’s activities.
>  
> Beijing presents a unique opportunity for the EWG to provide an update on its progress and to hear from the ICANN community to inform its post-Beijing work. The EWG invites the NCUC to attend their session on Monday, 8 April 2013 at 11:00-12:30 in Grand Hall A to share your comments and feedback with them (please refer to session details: http://beijing46.icann.org/node/37051).
>  
> Participants will be invited to comment on questions currently under discussion within the EWG, including:
>  
> ·      Whether collection, storage and provision of registrant data is necessary;
> ·      Whether to incorporate different registration data requirements for domain names for commercial use versus non-commercial use;
> ·      Whether and how anonymous registrations should be accommodated;
> ·      Potential costs/benefits of a distributed versus a centralized database;
> ·      Possible safeguards to minimize abuse and protect the privacy of registrants;
> ·      Whether and how remedies for inaccurate data should differ (for example,  in cases of fraudulent, criminal, or malicious conduct);
> ·      Whether tiered access is desirable, depending upon the requestor’s purpose.
>  
> Any additional feedback will be welcome.
>  
> If you are interested in learning more about the EWG’s work, please visit EWG’s wiki at: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=40175189  for meeting reports and other information regarding the EWG’s activities.
>  
> The EWG looks forward to this exchange and thanks you in advance for your participation.
>  
> Safe travels and see you in Beijing.
>  
> Very best regards,
>
