ICANN - New WHOIS definition survives Marrakech meeting

(Internet Governance Project) For now, it appears that the new, more technically focused and privacy-friendly definition of the purpose of Whois survived the Marrakech meeting. The U.S. Government and the copyright and law enforcement interests mounted a major onslaught against the GNSO action, using the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) as their pressure point. But it became clear during a lively GAC-GNSO open meeting that there is no unity among goverments on this issue. 7 July 2006
