[governance] Fwd: ICANN SSAC Publications #Blind Men and the Elephant

[Salanieta T. Tamanikaiwaimaro]

Dear All,

It will be great if you all could come and participate in the meetings in
Toronto where ICANN 45 will be held. There will no doubt be many
interesting things discussed and ICANN meetings are open to all. After all
why complain when you can attend and engage in dialogue and discussions if
not debates. Meetings are accessible and there is remote participation
available.

For now, here is the latest from the SSAC, see below:

Dear All,

The Security Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) is to advise the ICANN
community and Board on matters relating to security and integrity of the
Internet's naming and address allocation systems. The SSAC have just
released the following:


   1. The latest SSAC document published, see:
   http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents; and
   2. The SSAC Comment on the WHOIS Review Team Final Report of 14th
   September, 2012, see:
   http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents/sac-055-en.pdf

They have reviewed the WHOIS Review Final Report and its Recommendations
and highlighted the need to focus on the core purpose of the "information"
and labelled as High Priority the recommendation to have a Single Whois
Policy.

The WHOIS Review Final Report can be accessed via
http://www.icann.org/en/about/**aoc-review/whois/final-report-**
11may12-en.pdf<http://www.icann.org/en/about/aoc-review/whois/final-report-11may12-en.pdf>
This is relevant for all those who have a stake in WHOIS whether they are
Network Operators, Registries, Registrars, Resellers, country code top
level domain name operators (ccTLDs), Internet Service Providers, Law
Enforcement Officers who use WHOIS lookups and rely on them for
investigations, Revenue Authorities, Policy Makers and of course last but
certainly not the least, end users.
