[NCUC-DISCUSS] [Request for Comment] NCUC meeting with GAC

[Arsène Tungali]

I am also wondering how this 30 minutes meeting will look like in
terms of set up. A round table? A panel discussion? Do we know how
many of them are coming? Or maybe mostly their leadership? My advice
would be for NCUC members (who have good relationaships) to encourage
their GAC reps to come so that they learn what we do.

Since the NCUC is heavily involved in data protection issues, i would
like to hear from GAC members (especially non EU members) on what they
think of the GDPR and if there is any other region with a plan to
develop a GDPR-like regulations. This would be a valuable info for us
and valuable contacts for our future work/campaigns on data
protection.

I would like to know if GAC members from other regions are following
the GDPR discussions and if they can provide us with any data on
national legislations which conflicts with WHOIS. I believe if we have
more cases/examples, they can help us in our fight to get ICANN comply
with data protection laws.
