[ppml] Privacy of Reassignment Information

[Azinger, Marla]

I agree we need policy that gives residential privacy but at the same time supports the "research" community.  

ie Mandatory info is:

Residential
23456
upstream abuse contact info

or 

Residential
3V6 (hope I got that right.  Not sure if canadian postal starts with number or letter)
upstream abuse contact info

Marla, agreed.

The current methodology is simply to lie, so while several people may have issues with protecting this data, we need to find a way to create a policy to allow for this privacy in order to get accurate data imho.
