RE: [gnso-dt-wg] RE: Domain Tasting - Outcomes Report version 1.4

["Jeffrey Eckhaus" <jeckhaus@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

 

I agree with Tim Ruiz on this issue, the Registrars were asked for an
"Opinion Polling of Registrars regarding AGP". The statements that have
been provided are exactly what was requested. 

 

If ICANN staff has an issue, they should please direct this to the
Registrars Constituency if Section 4.3 as provided does not fulfill
their need as written:

To direct the ICANN staff to work with the ad hoc group to gather
further information and data about the domain tasting issue and make
further recommendations on effectively scoping a PDP;

It would be acceptable to me to have the text of what is now section 4.3

being included as an annex with a reference sentence in the body of the

report.

 

To avoid any misunderstanding:  I would agree to having any part of 4.3

being included in the body of the report only if it was significantly

revised so as to be limited solely to facts.  For example:

 

RC developed [number] questions, which were [quote in entirety].

[Number of registrars} were polled; [number] responded/agreed to

participate.  [Number] of these registrars had been in operation before

AGP was introduced in [date].  [If polling was not open to all

ICANN-accredited registrars, identify how polled registrars were

identified and describe common characteristics].  None of participating

registrars had ever engaged in tasting or kiting. [or accurate temporal

and numerical description] 

 

[number] of respondents stated that they had used the AGP to provide a

refund to a registrant who had mis-typed its desired domain name.

[State frequency of such use, if asked, or state that didn't ask how

often or number of instances.]

 

[Number] of respondents stated that they had used the AGP for

[refund-related purpose].  [State frequency of such use, if asked, or

state that didn't ask how often or number of instances.]

 

Anything else would have to go into the annex.

Marilyn and all,

That's perhaps an idea!

Jothan & Kristina: Would Marilyn's proposal be acceptable to you?

Thanks!

Olof

I agree with Kristina. The "conclusion document from the RC" written as

is is  more appropriate as an annex.... With a simple sentence of

reference in the body of the report.

 

Nothing aginst a piece like this written by a constituency, but is not

equivalent to a transparent poll. It can probably be fixed with a list

of the number of respondents/the list of questions asked/etc, on the

other hand if it was conducted more like a qualitative 'call out' which

is still interesting, but not the same as an open survey, just describe

the chacteristics of how the responses were gathered, and include as a.

Annex. 

Regards,

Marilyn Cade

All,

 

Attached are my suggested revisions to part 1 of 1.4.

 

I've copied into it the summary of the IPC RFI that I posted yesterday.

 

One revision I did not make, but believe would be helpful, is to include

the percentages that correspond to each reference to respondent rations

(x of y respondents).  

 

I object strongly to the inclusion of 4.3.  The RC could have conducted

its own Supplemental RFI.  It did not do so.  Based on the summary, the

straw poll appears to have been fully devoid of transparency, and the

"summary" relies solely on conclusory arguments and opinions.  It is my

view that retaining it undermines the legitimacy of the entire report.

I will seek further instructions from my constituency.  In the meantime,

I have made substantive revisions.  

 

Kristina

Hi all,

Please see my message below - it bounced at the ICANN server due to the

attachment being too big....!!!!

Now I have to send it IKEA-style, in two pieces, for you to assemble.

Here is part 1.

Best regards

Olof

Subject: Domain Tasting - Outcomes Report version 1.4

 

Dear all,

Please find a brand new version of our group's report attached. It's not

yet a contender for the Nobel Prize in literature, I'ld say, but there

are plenty of novelties in relation to the previous version:

- new ccTLD annex and summary from Patrick J

- registrar poll section filled with text from Jothan F

- APWG and MarkMonitor (partly!) responses entered in annex 2

- response to the UDRP survey from Kristina R included in annex

- question 15 updated, with individual names of those giving consent

- new annexes for IPC survey and VeriSign request

- data on .biz and .org from Jeff N entered in 4.2

- some hyperlinks introduced to simplify life for the reader

- text edits done as agreed on call (I hope - do check, please!)

- BigPulse overview in annex, table frames nudged (OK now, Jothan?)

- and, and - what did I forget?......ouf

 

Now, with our ultimate deadline looming, your comments are needed by COB

Friday 28 September to enable a Final Draft to be circulated in time for

the final conference call next week. Then, the Final Version goes to the

GNSO Council on 4 October.

 

Wishing you happy reading!

 

Olof
