Re: [council] NC WHOIS Committee - update.....

[Michael Schneider <sastre@anwalt.de>]

Paul,

I'm going to volunteer on behalf of the ISP constituency - particularly 
since WHOIS has turned out to be a major issue on my constituency's agenda 
but I'd also like to ensure that those concerns are given a hear which have 
been expressed by Europeans - particularly with respect to privacy.

Best regards,
Michael Schneider
