Hello Kurt and all, I have moved the suggested draft questions from section 5 to section 4 now. I also merged the cells in column 4 of section 4, as I do not want to break the flow of the suggested draft questions and they seem to apply to some aspects of the relevant charter questions corresponding to the three purposes & scopes.

This is the kind of group that internet surveys can plausibly reach.

Yes, please move the questions up to no. 4. Hi everyone: Here is how I don’t have a clue: I saw the no. 5 first column had the word “registrant” and thought that one was mine. Nonetheless, I think the same set of questions will work for no.4 as well, with some additions that I will make later. My question is, what is a potential registrant? I don’t see how we gain any useful, reliable information here. Do we ask, “if you were to ever register a domain name and saw this statement, would you be scared off?” It seems a little odd to me. I know there is a good answer to this and I am embarrassed to be asking: what is the distinction between a registrant and potential registrant that can be measured in a survey or other type of data gathering? Thanks everyone and sorry for the misstep. Kurt.

(See question 6.) Is this what we had in mind? I need some advice: The GNSO approved formulation calls for testing trademark claims in “different languages.” How many different languages do we think we will need to satisfy whoever it is that included that phrase in the questions? Thoughts for constructing the survey, where we would want 1000+ respondents to be statistically meaningful: 1) I am against using existing stakeholder groups to take this survey out to their “members” as that will result in non-random samples and results that are otherwise skewed. 2) The most inexpensive way to conduct the survey is for registrars to reach out to their registrants. Registrars could offer discounts on domain renewals for taking the survey (and state the importance of participating). ICANN can fund the discounts and administrative costs. (I don’t know if registrars would do this but I am suggesting this.) 3) An outside survey firm could do this fairly cheaply. It might become expensive because so few people are registrants - they might have to contact 30 panelists or more to find one registrant. Mary - I am sorry I did not put this directly into our wiki document. Would you mind doing that? Comments welcome on the substance and the methodology & thanks, Kurt
