I disagree with Steve here.  

This information would help the WG evaluate whether private RPMs are, in any cases, at risk of operating improperly (for example, in an arbitrary, overbearing, or unreliable manner).

Again, this group is not evaluating private RPMs and whether they are operating properly or improperly.  This is an information gathering exercise to educate the WG -- we are not looking at whether a particular service is considered by a WG member to be "arbitrary, overbearing or unreliable" -- whatever that means. This type of review is outside of our charter.

Thank you, Mary.

I have one comment and one question:

- I believe Question 7 should not be deleted.  I feel it will be helpful to the WG’s overall understanding of RPMs to know whether a given marketplace RPM has been subject to approval review and, if so, the criteria used in such evaluation. This information would help the WG evaluate whether private RPMs are, in any cases, at risk of operating improperly (for example, in an arbitrary, overbearing, or unreliable manner).

- Do group members believe that Question 4 encompasses such information as the scope of each marketplace RPM and the fees charged for such services?  If not, should this be added as a separate question?  I feel this information is also important to our understanding of the marketplace RPM landscape.

I look forward to speaking with everyone tomorrow.

Regards,
Steve

Hello members of the Additional Marketplate RPM Sub Team,

 

This note is intended just to draw your attention to the need to review and discuss the “reverse redline” document concerning the scope of our work, as well as to complete the Action Items from our first call. The message below contains a link to the “reverse redline” document for your review. If you can, please send your comments to this mailing list before our call this Friday.

 

Additionally, since no one else has been nominated or has come forward to seek a co-chair position on this Sub Team, staff will follow up with the Working Group co-chairs to confirm that Paul McGrady is the sole chair of this Sub Team.

 

Thanks and cheers

Mary
