The main point (second bullet in draft 2) was that registrars who 
violate whatever privacy laws or policies might exist (without entering 
into what they should be, since on that we disagree) should be 
sanctioned and, in serious cases, deaccredited, exactly as when they 
violate whatever laws or policies require them to disclose certain 
information (again, without entering into what they should be). In other 
words, enforcement should work in both directions; not only for the 
policies that require disclosure, but also for the policies that require 
privacy. To me it seems quite an obvious and non-controversial point, so 
could you just reinstate it?

In any case, the original Whois section was agreed text - no one had 
asked to remove it in the round of comments to draft 2, not even you. So 
I do not understand why we have to reopen the entire discussion once 
again - we just needed to incorporate comments to draft 2 into a final 
draft.
