Re: [nc-whois] Addendum to WHOIS TF Report in front of GNSO Council

Ram,

This seems quite reasonable to me.  I appreciate the way the gTLD 
Constituency went about this (and the ALAC as well).  I don't believe 
anyone on the TF intends for Accuracy to be enforced until Privacy is 
managed.  This recommendation appears in-line with my understanding of our 
TF's progress intentions.

Thank you.
