-------- Original Message --------

Dear Steve,

I am writing to you in my capacity as the Chair of the ALAC with regards
to your email below containing a draft tripartite letter on thick whois
and the .com renewal.

I have forwarded the draft letter to the ALAC working list and asked for
messages of support or opposition regarding its contents.

The discussion list received the following replies:

http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/alac/2012/002219.html

http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/alac/2012/002224.html

Which includes a positive reply from several people including my four
colleagues on the ALAC Executive Committee.

I also asked whether anyone had any objections:

No objections were received.

In the absence of any objections, but whilst reminding you that no
formal ALAC vote has been conducted on the matter, I am able to relay to
you that there is strong support for the letter to be sent to the Board,
to be co-signed by me in its current form on behalf of the ALAC.

For reference, this current email and the original draft letter which
you have sent me are both archived on:

If you have any questions regarding any of the above, please do not
hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely,

Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond
ALAC Chair
