Here's the announcement. Time and place: Tuesday, March 5, 9 am to 10 am, Local Time , Room 103 A See ICANN Schedule: *https://icann79.sched.com/event/1a1Ep/gnso-csg <https://icann79.sched.com/event/1a1Ep/gnso-csg-membership-work-session>* The session description is now on the official schedule website. As I mentioned, I will have a minute or two at the beginning. I intend to emphasize this is an information sharing session, not a decision session. The small team is actively discussing needed changes with staff, and they will get a copy of what's shared in this session. Feel free to suggest alternative or additional wording.

We note that ICANN has issued 2 reports on the early adoption/progress of the RDRS and we have been collecting stories from our own members of their user experiences. We decided to open our session as a service to the community. Please share stories (success rates, response rates, road blocks) and provide ideas for short term and long term solutions to some of the challenges that we have encountered. We, of course, want to know what is working for you too. Those who may be part of the CPH, we wish to focus on your experiences as requestors. Many of your organizations have need for registration data information from 3rd parties. We are interested in knowing if you have used the RDRS for your own corporate inquiries and how those inquiries have fared under the system. We appreciate your intervention in this light rather than from the data controller lens. We are asking for volunteers from any SO/AC to share their stories. If you or your members are interested in a dedicated intervention, please contact me lschulman@inta.org with a copy to MCole@perkinscoie.com and Steve Crocker at Steve@Shinkuro.com We are asking for interventions to be 3 minutes and if you wish to prepare a single slide, we are happy to accept the slides until Sunday, March 3 at 5 pm, Puerto Rico time. Interventions are welcomed and strongly encouraged from the floor too. Members of the CSG and the Edgemoor Research Institute will coordinate a post session report with suggestions for follow up. An email box is being established to report stories in more depth and more details will follow. We also encourage all users to take the user survey provided by Registrars at the bottom of each decision notice. The survey is being conducted by ICANN and is the basis for the reports that we are receiving, so please respond. The Session details are as follows: *CSG Working Session: Share Your Stories – RDS Requestor Experiences* CSG invites Requestors to share their stories from the initial roll out of the RDRS. Our purpose is to collect real-world examples of successes and challenges in order to develop sustainable solutions. The more information we collect the more we can contribute to efforts for improvement . This session is devoted to the information gathering part of the process. We appreciate ICANN Org’s ongoing commitment to providing a solution for registration data access and all are welcome *Time/Location * Tuesday, March 5, 9 am to 10 am, Local Time , Room 103 A See ICANN Schedule: *https://icann79.sched.com/event/1a1Ep/gnso-csg-membership-work-session <https://icann79.sched.com/event/1a1Ep/gnso-csg-membership-work-session>* *AGENDA* 1.
