Hi Sarah,

As a follow up to your inquiry regarding publishing the rate at which changes to priority are made,  the chart below can be included in Metric 7 going forward and added to the RDRS Usage Metrics Report published in June. The chart displays the number of requests where priority status was changed from “expedited” to “standard” by the registrar for each month of the pilot.  Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Kind regards,

Lisa Carter

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for your question.  We aren’t currently publishing the rate at which changes to priority are made. Let me touch base with the team and get back to you with additional information.

Kind regards,

Hello,

In RDRS the registrar can now change the priority level of a request from Expedited to Standard (and presumably vice versa).

Is ICANN tracking the rate of priority level changes? If so, can that please be included in our metrics reporting? And if not, maybe we can start, and also publish it?

Thank you,
