Hi Alan, I wanted to respond to your questions regarding the metrics. Apologies for the delay. Please see in line comments to your questions in red below. Thanks Lisa Carter Sr. Program Manager, Strategic Initiatives ICANN From: Gnso-rdrs-sc <gnso-rdrs-sc-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of Alan Greenberg <greenberg.alan@gmail.com> Date: Monday, March 25, 2024 at 8:41 AM To: Caitlin Tubergen <caitlin.tubergen@icann.org> Cc: "gnso-rdrs-sc@icann.org" <gnso-rdrs-sc@icann.org> Subject: Re: [Gnso-rdrs-sc] Proposed agenda - RDRS Standing Committee Meeting #4 - Monday, 25 March at 17:30 UTC For discussion under item 2: I am still having problems reconciling Metric 9 and the chart on page 11. Presuming that the column count refers to the number at the left of the column, the total number of requests comes to 756 but the number reported under Metric 5 is 754. The numbers balanced for last month but were out by 19 in the first report. This table is important, because it allows one to derive the number of active requestors each month (by totalling the heights of the columns), a figure not otherwise reported. Regarding reconciling Metric 9 with chart on page 11, this is a histogram which is based on a range of data. The bars represent a range of values between the two numbers, so adding numbers together does not get you the actual totals. The histogram is live as of time of pulling (preparing the report for publication), so comparing/reconciling with Metric 5 (that is date bound) isn’t really possible. On another topic, unless I am missing something (quite possible!), I do not see reported the number of requests attempts rejected due to non-participating registrars or other non-applicable TLDs (perhaps broken down by gTLD, ccTLD, other) nor do I see a report of the number of registrars who received requests in the month. These would seem to be important metrics. There isn’t really a rejection due to non-participating registrar. The user is prompted up front in the event of a non-participating registrar that they can still fill out the form and download it to send it to the non-participating registrar directly. We have metrics on lookup status (Metric 10) and on the PDF export portion for non-participating registrars (Metric 6.1) and we’ve now added Metric 6.2 for PDF export for participating registrars. Lastly, and perhaps related, I am having trouble reconciling Metrics 3/4 to the total number of disclosure requests. Metric 3/4 is the numbers of users having accessed RDRS in a given time frame only. If you are trying to determine the total number of users that submitted requests in a given time frame, that is not a metric we currently show.
