Dear Bill, I am referring to the regional ccTLD organisations (AfTLD, APTLD, CENTR and LACTLD). We have been asked by the ccTLD representatives on the CWG (Lise Fuhr, Paul Kane, Staffan Jonson, Vika Mpisane and Erick Iriarte) to help them reach out to as many ccTLDs as possible. The CENTR GA 52 suggested about a month ago that CENTR should support such an initiative if and when it arises. The end purpose of this survey is to provide the above mentioned representatives with input from the broadest possible range of ccTLDs. When they start drafting the proposal they want to make sure it is in line with what ccTLDs expect. The survey was drafted by myself, Paul Kane and Don Hollander. Rough basis came from the discussions in the ccNSO LA and the ARIN survey. Comments were taken on board from a range of people, including the ccNSO Chair and Vice-Chair and one of the ICG ccTLD representatives. Hope this clarifies, Best Regards, Peter

Peter:
It is important that we all understand what is underway here. Regrettably, I do not.
1. Exactly which regional organizations are you referring to below, and in what context is this being done "on behalf of ccTLD representatives?" I don't recall any such vote to draft or participate in such a survey by APTLD, nor by the ccNSO Council. But perhaps I missed it?
2. Can you please be more specific in explaining who is actually behind these surveys, who drafted them, and what their end purpose or use will be?
Many thanks,
Bill Semich
