          [ridiculous] IAG process, I can confirm that the procedure
          suggested does not make much sense in terms of how data
          protection law is understood and enforced.  Nevertheless, the
          procedure and report was passed, and the GNSO accepted it
          despite the fact that the registrars knew it would not work. 
          Another IAG is being struck in the fall, with a different
          Charter, and we will have to pay close attention to that one
          to ensure that it makes more sense than the last one did.</font></font></p>

          that offered a tough record to beat) for utterly useless and
          senseless going in circles.  Nevertheless, I am going to join

                          The WHOIS Procedure has been revised to
                          incorporate an alternative trigger to invoke
                          the WHOIS Procedure. The current trigger in
