Hi Everyone, Apologies, but I'll be joining our call about 15 minutes late. Talk to you all soon. Marina Marina A. Lewis marina@dns-law.com<mailto:marina@dns-law.com> (415) 290-1245 On Oct 14, 2016, at 7:14 AM, Mary Wong <mary.wong@icann.org<mailto:mary.wong@icann.org>> wrote: Hello all, We understand that the Analysis Group will likely be asking for the data to be provided by mid-November or thereabouts. What may be more significant is that the raw data (as has been the case with all such requests) will be kept confidential. While I believe that means we would only have access to the final statistics that the Analysis Group will be publishing, we do not know when that will be – though we can and perhaps should certainly ask Greg Rafert for an estimated time frame. Our concern with sending very similar questions at the same time to the same registrars is, of course, that it creates confusion and may not result in as many registrars being willing to provide similar data to two different sets of requestors. As such, staff suggests that our group coordinate with Greg to, at a minimum, find out if and when the Analysis Group may be willing to share their findings with us. Once we know that, we can then decide whether to edit our questions accordingly (or not).

I support sending out our questions to Registries and probably to Registrars to (as edited). Question: what's the timeframe for the Analysis Group's questions and analysis? Does it fit within our timeframe? Would we even have access to their data? Would response to Analysis Group be confidential until compiled and anonymized? Basically, are we better off with our own path?

Following the Sub Team’s discussion and, hopefully, sign off on the call tomorrow, staff will prepare a draft report for finalization by the Sub Team prior to forwarding it to the full Working Group. Regarding the various agreed questions to Registrars, Registries and the TMCH Providers, please note the following updates: · We have just learned from our GDD colleagues that the Analysis Group plans to ask for further data from both Registries and Registrars. From what we are told, their request to the Registries (of New gTLDs) will concern only wholesale pricing, so that should not overlap with anything that our Sub Team is planning to ask from these Registries. · For Registrars, however, the Analysis Group plans to ask for data that can shed more light on cart abandonment rate. As this was a substantial point of discussion for our Sub Team and also the full Working Group, we may wish to either hold off on sending the questions that Kathy and Kurt are working to finalize, or coordinate with the Analysis Group to avoid repeating the same question while getting the data that we need. We can discuss this further on the call tomorrow, but David and I thought it best to let you know ahead of time.

Should you have any final comments on these we would be grateful to receive them asap. In relation to the meeting for this week, scheduled for Friday, 7 October 2016 at 15:00 UTC, staff would suggest that this would provide an opportune time to discuss the report to be sent to the Working Group. Tentatively we would suggest that the report could cover the following items: · Overview of activities to date; · Publicly available data obtained by the ST (i.e. the tabular summary prepared by staff); · Outcome of meetings with analysis group; and · Proposed further data gathering from key-stakeholders. We would be grateful to receive any comments you had on this outline. Kind regards, David David A.
