<p><font size="+1"><font face="Lucida Grande">Attached are my
preliminary comments on the WHOIS review team 2 initial
findings. This is the rollup of the subgroups work, which we
recently discussed in Brussels. I objected strenuously to one
item, that the Board had delivered on its responsibilities re
a policy. I think the EWG was a violation of the MS process,
the failure of the RDS was a failure of ICANN as a whole (not
the GNSO as Alan G claims) and that the Board initiated
interim policy is a fundamental failure of the MS process.....</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Lucida Grande">anyway I have asked
for more time, which I doubt the Chair will grant. Volker,
who did not attend the meeting, has not had time to go over
it. He is the only contracted party there (there are 3 GAC
members) and they have to live with all our recommendations,
which I find fundamentally wrong.</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Lucida Grande">Let me know if you
have comments, I will push to get them added. They are
rushing this through when we are all GDPRing....<br>
