style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;">Given the dialogue on the list, shall I schedule 
another meeting for us to meet?&nbsp; If so, let me know and I can send out a 
Doodle.&nbsp; Else, we have until November 7<sup>th</sup> to submit the Advice 
Letter to the Council for consideration at the November 15<sup>th</sup> 
meeting.<o:p></o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;">With respect to the metrics identified in the Advice 
Letter, I’d like to remind everyone that one of the key messages in the advice 
is that a future AoC Review Team will make the final decisions about what 
metrics are used to conduct the review.&nbsp; From the letter:<o:p></o:p></div> 
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div 
class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;">“The Working Group understands that 
the purpose of this advice is to provide the ICANN Board with definitions, 
measures, and targets that could be useful to the Affirmation review team that 
will convene one year after new gTLDs are launched.&nbsp; However, the Working 
Group understands that this advice cannot pre-determine or otherwise limit the 
scope of the future Affirmation review team.&nbsp; Additionally, this advice is 
not intended to recommend policy changes or policy development needs.&nbsp; 
“<o:p></o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;">I do not want to minimize the WG efforts in identifying 
the proposed metrics, but in essence the proposed metrics at this point is just 
a “starter list.”&nbsp; The future Review Team will finalize which metrics are 
required to conduct the review across Consumer Trust, Consumer Choice, and 
Competition.&nbsp; Further, the Review Team will spend a considerable amount of 
time to not only identify which metrics are used, but the complete requirements 
of each metric will have to be flushed out.&nbsp; The team will need to 
research the source owner of the data, the systems required to collect the 
data, how the metric will be presented, and the possible factors that may 
influence its result in addition to cost considerations.&nbsp; As an example, 
after seeing results of a particular Consumer Choice metric, the future Review 
Team may in fact have to modify the scope of gTLD types being measured (e.g. 
whether Brand TLDs influence the result or a defined target).<o:p></o:p></div> 
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div 
class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;">The bottom line, each of these 
metrics (perhaps excluding surveys) will require a base source listing of each 
TLD that is delegated.&nbsp; This base listing will contain TLD type (Brand, 
Geographic, IDN, etc.) in addition to other meta-data.&nbsp; As the Review Team 
analyzes certain metrics, they will have the option to poll the entire universe 
of gTLDs/ccTLDs or specifically select a TLD type that best meets the final 
requirements of the stated metric.&nbsp; Systems are being built now in support 
of the gTLD program and as such will likely be the primary 
source.<o:p></o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;">In close, there is a high probability that the future 
Review Team will accept most if not all of the proposed metrics offered in the 
advice.&nbsp; Regardless, it is not the mandate of this WG to create a 
finalized list.&nbsp; Continued efforts to refine these metrics may likely not 
return value given the larger tasks ahead of the future Review 
Team.<o:p></o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal" 
style="font-size:12pt;">ICANN Staff will be happy to assist the WG however it 
wishes to proceed.&nbsp; <o:p></o:p></div> <div class="MsoNormal"
