    <p>Hi Rafik, <br>
    </p>
    <p>Belated response due to illness. In consultation with the RPM
      Working Group, the Co-Chairs shared a letter with the GNSO Council
      highlighting the importance of WHOIS data for the ICANN-mandated
      domain name dispute resolution proceedings: the Uniform Dispute
      Resolution Policy and the Uniform Rapid Suspension system. The
      uses of the Whois data include notice to domain name registrants
      of any proceedings filed against their domain names.  <br>
    </p>
    <p>Years ago NCUC worked for multiple ways for the Dispute Providers
      to notify registrants of a pending dispute, including email and
      hardcopy (in case an email coming from an party with no
      relationship to the registrant hit spam). These were written into
      the policies.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Our goal in the letter to Council was to share the need for
      registrant data, on a case by case basis, for the domain name
      dispute processes.<br>
    </p>
    Best, Kathy<br>
