Thanks for sharing this Xavier, the summary are particularly helpful. FWIW, Its interesting how much professional expense has gone into this process (this can be over 5years budget of some individual I* orgs that contributes to ICANN one way or the order) and i wondered what it would have looked like if volunteer hours were billed as well ;-) Overall it is my hope that all these would not be a waste and it is also my hope that we would be more strategic on how we engage professional services in WS2.

Dear Xavier, Thanks for sharing this. I'm a Programme Officer with the Centre for Internet and Society, and had a few follow up questions to this report: 1. Under the expenses breakdown for Professional Services, what is the exact breakdown for "travel support including visas"? 2. Under the same head, what constitute "other miscellaneous services"? 3. Under the head of "US Government Affairs (Lobbying)" - could you provide us with details of what the lobbyists did, what was said, and who they spoke to? In case you are not in a position to provide these details, could you kindly refer me to somebody who can? 4. Under the head of "Education/Engagement/Advice", I can't help but notice that perhaps some of the most powerful lobbyists are named. In the absence of a detailed report explaining their work with and for ICANN, we cannot make an informed distinction between their work and that of the lobbyists. Please provide us with details of their work, or direct me to somebody who may be able to provide me with this information? +1 to Sean's comment about hoping we are more strategic in our engagement with professional services in WS2, and also more transparent. Thank you for this and I hope to hear from you soon, Vidushi Marda ----- On Mar 1, 2016, at 12:43 PM, Xavier J. Calvez <xavier.calvez@icann.org> wrote:

Dear Xavier, Could you please acknowledge the receipt of my email and also indicate when I can expect to get an answer to the questions (in the thread below). Since you have responded to all other comments apart from mine, I'm wondering whether you have missed my email or will not be responding at all? In the absence of any response whatsoever, I will need to file a DIDP to get the answers I am looking for. I have also copied my colleagues from the Centre for Internet and Society, Sunil Abraham and Pranesh Prakash. Thanks for reading this and hope to get an update soon, Vidushi. ----- On Mar 1, 2016, at 2:56 PM, <vidushi@cis-india.org> wrote:

Dear Vidushi, I acknowledge receipt of your email questions and will provide a fuller response to your substantive questions which require further analysis to be adequately answered. I can not yet assess how long it will take us to answer all received questions, but I will keep everyone updated once we will have assessed the amount of analysis required and associated time to complete. For your information, I have not yet responded to or acknowledged all emails received on this topic, as I have been traveling and just landed. Irrespective, you should feel free to file any DIDP request that you deem useful, which we welcome as always. Thank you.

Xavier, I am sure I can not post to all recipients, so please reply to all quoting this. The more raw data is published, the less work it is for you and your staff and the more fun for the requester(s) it is running it through R or whatever analysis software one uses. But, in any case I urge Vidushi to participate in Work Stream 2 where DiDP is to be addressed. el -- Sent from Dr Lisse's iPad mini 4
