Do you have any idea what Slide 8 is about?  Some of the entries
make no sense to me at all.


It's a bit unfair to discuss the slides without the accompanying talk,
but if I'd have to guess I'd say it is an offtopic critique of the
problems of whois databases (on the one hand that they contain personal
data, on the other hand that they tend to be incomplete and not as well
maintained as one might hope), and the well-discussed problems of
unicode and IDNA.

It doesn't seem like they are examples of the original problem
statement. But, again, one would need to have the full context of the
presentation to be sure.
