A few important comments in advance of finalizing this report:

First in Section 8.3

This statement:  

"8.3    Recommendations ? There was strong support for but significant
opposition for the following recommendation. The two opposing views are
below, and the RAPWG will further consider these views after receiving
public comment:"  

Is confusing and editorial as opposed to factual.  Please replace
"significant opposition" with the number of opposing votes. or remove the
clause 

Second Section 6.7.3

I agree with Mike Rodenbaugh's alternate view and would like to be included
as supporting his assertion.

Last, throughout:

Faisal and I are cited as members of the IPC, which is true that MarkMonitor
are members of the IPC, however we are non-voting because we are not an
intellectual property organization like INTA or others and are participation
in this group is as individuals not as IPC members.  Our work is not blessed
or approved by the IPC.  Please cite us as such or cite our company as our
affiliation.

Dear All,

Please find attached the final clean version of the RAPWG Initial Report. If
you have any corrections or edits, these must be posted to the list today,
Thursday 11 February, by 15:00 UTC. The document will be posted tomorrow,
Friday 12 February. To accompany the posting, Greg and I have prepared the
attached announcement. Please let me know if you have any comments / edits.

In addition, I have discussed with Greg whether it would be good idea to
open the public comment period at the same time as the publication of the
report so that it would run for 45 days, instead of 30 days as earlier
discussed. In this way, the publication and announcement can direct
interested parties to the public comment forum and it would also allow us to
direct Nairobi participants there instead of having to wait until after the
meeting. Please let me know if you have any objections to this proposal. Of
course, the public announcement would be updated accordingly.

With best regards,

Marika
