Hi All, Wearing my INZ hat here. The Domain Name Commission is currently running a consultation process around the .nz WHOIS policies and InternetNZ would like to encourage people to make submissions on that process. This is especially true of people in the technical and security fields. While I don't want to offer an opinion about the current policies, any of the submissions, or proposals, what I do want to do is to encourage you to read the proposal and submissions and consider if you might like to make a submission of your own on the process. You can see more information at the link below with an outline of a proposed process. https://dnc.org.nz/consultation-whois-review-process If you think that there might be a better process than the one outlined then please put in a submission with your input and if possible details of an alternative process. If you think that the process outlined is appropriate then please consider putting in a submission detailing why you support it. It's important to ensure that both sides are well represented in the submissions being considered. Comments can be sent by email to policies(a)dnc.org.nz, or by post to PO Box 11881 Wellington 6142. Submissions should be received by 7 June 2016. Regards, Dean -- Dean Pemberton Technical Policy Advisor InternetNZ +64 21 920 363 (mob) dean(a)internetnz.net.nz A better world through a better Internet
