Just to expand on my comments after some arguments made against. The reason I think the WG should adopt the work item is that the original design of DNS is now defective in the light of contemporary privacy concerns. There is no reason that the operators of registries should have sight of any information they do not have a need to know.
The business relationships built up over the years on the assumption that this data will be available and for sale to the highest bidder are of neither consequence nor concern. These practices are going to be insisted on regardless of choices made by this group. If indeed minimization has operational effects it is much better to document them and allow parties to avoid unintended consequences. At this point however, there is no evidence of harm. Proof of very substantial showing of harm should be necessary to block consideration of a proposal at the outset. Opponents will after all have plenty of time to make objections in WG process, that being the point of WG process. It would be a terrible mistake to reject this work without a hearing because of the mere possibility that a problem could occur. If indeed the state of the DNS is as fragile as is suggested it will soon collapse of its own accord. I rather suspect however that the fears are unfounded.
