[ALAC] [Accred-Model] Comment - Alan Greenberg

[Holly Raiche]

Alan

I see a lot wrong with it - and I see a lot that I disagree with in Jonathan’s first draft.  I have been tied up teaching, but finally have a bit of time to put my thoughts down - and I decidedly do NOT think the IPC/BC is a great model.  For a very different view, read the NCSG response- attached.  So PLEASE - give people at least a bit more time to look at what Jonathan’s response - and mine.

Perhaps we could start with this single and improve later, but my preference would be to use the use-cases we have already built to provide more than one few tier (ie more than just a) thin WHOIS, or b) ALL of the data.)

The only one I find possible questionable related to funding the accreditation process. Although I would prefer that it is an integral part of the DNS and WHOIS (and thus funded by ICANN through its normal sources), I would not want to see implementation delayed over this issue.
