Thank you Karl and Roberto for your comments
Roberto, the location of the ARDS is absolutely front and centre as an issue. Some of the immediate comments I heard was to insist the database NOT be located in the US (followed by a long list of other undesirable locations). I would imagine places like Geneva or Brussels (or Finland) would be more easily accepted. But I think the better solution is to describe the venue in terms of strict and enforceable (and enforced) privacy laws. - set benchmark criteria at the least.
Other issues that were discussed on the day included enforcement - by whom (ICANN's compliance department has not covered itself with glory on this one), and defining who can have access to what data.
