[gnso-whois-study] RE: Whois Hypotheses Group Meeting Recap for 29 July

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Liz.
 
I have a few suggestions/questions:

1.      
        In the first row of the table, I think it would be better to
move the column heading "Hypothesis" so that it follows the preferatory
remarks and change it to "Hypotheses".
2.      
        I also would suggest rewording the parenthetical statement
something like this, without the parentheses: "Note: throughout this
document the term "registrant" refers to what is sometimes called 'the
actual registrant' or customer of the proxy/privacy service. In that
regard, note the following from the Registrar Accreditation Agreement
(RAA):"
3.      
        In case we distribute the table as a Word document, I think it
would be helpful to format the rows so they do not break across a page;
to do this, select all rows, then click on Table followed by Table
Properties followed by Rows and then uncheck the box titled 'Allow row
to break across pages'.
4.      
        For Area 5, GAC #1, what is the "OR" for?  It looks fine in the
Wiki so you probably don't need to do anything in the tracked Word
version.
5.      
        For Study 20 in Area 6, I suggest changing "Consolidated with
study suggestion #3." to something like this: "Suggest that this be
consolidated with study #3."

I hope others were comment if they disagree with any of my suggested
edits.
 
Chuck

        All,

         

        Attached please find summary of changes made on today's call for
hypotheses in Areas 5 and 6.  They have also been updated on the wiki.
Please let me know if I've missed anything.  I inserted the notation
about the definition of "registrant data" and the recap of the text of
Sec. 3.7.7.3 of the RAA at the top of the chart just under the
Hypothesis header.  The wiki doesn't like footnotes. 

         

        Thanks, Liz
