Chair, GNSO Council

Dear Mr. Tonkin,
 

On behalf of the American Intellectual Property Law Association, I am
forwarding comments expressing the Association's serious concerns
regarding the vote of the Generic Names Supporting Organization favoring
the narrow Formulation 1 definition of the purpose of the WHOIS service
in the context of ICANN's mission and core values.

We thank you in advance for your consideration of our views.

Sincerely,

Michael K. Kirk
