Invitation to an Open Telecon on Whois

I said "Next week, there will be a community sponsored, open teleconference to discuss how we can work within the ICANN process to start implementing first steps towards a Whois that more appropriately suits the needs of all affected stakeholders. There has been a lot of talk on the various issues, public and private, but no actual sign-posts erected that would allow us to see this issue towards a logical and appropriate conclusion. This will not, of course, replace the policy development process, but provide inputs to it and hopefully, early relief on key issues such as access to data, privacy and accuracy."
