J. Scott: What are you talking about? I've already made it clear (during the calls) that I'm in *favour* of improving the PDDRP! Perhaps you've not been paying attention. For you to attack my earlier response on the basis that the "input" is in "opposition to (my) personal position" is ridiculous. I would have made the comments I made regardless of my own position, for the clear and logical reasons I stated, which had absolutely nothing to do with the actual answers to the survey but instead were based on (1) total number of responses and (2) numbers not adding up properly. Furthermore, to suggest that *anyone* in the group should "rally those who share your views the next time" is entirely inappropriate, in my opinion. It's suggesting that instead of this working group doing a "scientific" survey, a *representative* sample of the population of stakeholders, that folks should instead be engaged in electioneering in order to artificially manipulate the outcome. For that suggestion to come from one of the co-chairs of this working group is even more disturbing. Lastly, I properly noted that there were a total of 5 people (out of 16 survey participants) believe that the PDDRP should change. That's 31.25%, a mathematical fact. You might label that an "overwhelming" response and a "clear direction", but I disagree, for the reasons I stated in my first email, and say so *despite* my own personal opinion on the issue.

George:
I am not going to argue statistics with you. You can say whatever you want to discredit this input. We asked for input. We received it and it gave us a clear direction. Just because the direction is in direction opposition to your personal position is no reason to ignore the input. I would suggest that you rally those who share your views the next time we do outreach.

1. The sample size appears to be 16 (from Q2), so the statistical margin of error for such a small sample size is enormous. The total number of respondents who "overwhelmingly" believe that the PDDRP should change is 5 (answer to Q10), which is actually 31.25% of those who participated in the survey (5 of 16).
2. Many of the numbers don't add up. e.g. (a) for Q4, there were 19 responses, despite the sample size being 16! (b) for Q9, there were 6 responses, when the most there should have been is 5 (given there were 5 "yes" responses in Q7). (c) for Q10, there were 6 responses, when the most there should have been is 5 (given there were 5 "no" responses in Q9).
There were only 9 visible answers (i.e. there was no Q1 shown in the document), so it's disturbing that one-third of the survey results don't add up properly. I'm not sure what software was used to display the survey, but tools like SurveyMonkey, etc. usually allow "conditional branching" or "skip logic" to only show some questions to people who answer a prior question in a certain manner, etc.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/mp/tour/skiplogic/
Given the above, I'd place little weight on the results, either "for" something or "against" something.

Wow. The respondents seem to really believe (overwhelmingly so) that we need to amend the PDDRP to make is useable.
Thoughts? Discussion?

Dear all,
You will recall that the Working Group had agreed to resume deliberations over the Trademark Post-Delegation Dispute Resolution Procedure (TM-PDDRP) after receipt of responses from the TM-PDDRP providers and closure of the Community Survey.
We received responses from two providers FORUM and WIPO, for which we thank Brian Beckham, Ty Gray, Daniel Legerski and their colleagues. We also collected sixteen community member responses to the TM-PDDRP Community Survey, including from registrars and intellectual property rights-holders. All the responses, as well as an aggregated data report on the Community Survey, have now been uploaded to the Working Group wiki space here: https://community.icann.org/x/ugqsAw[community.icann.org].
The Working Group co-chairs have asked that Working Group members review these responses in time for our next call on 19 October 2016, where, if time permits, we will start discussing them. At the moment, we anticipate that a fuller review, including community participation, will be the focus of the Working Group¹s open meeting at ICANN57 in Hyderabad. This will allow us to complete this initial review of the TM-PDDRP shortly thereafter.
FYI the tentative date and time of the open Working Group meeting at ICANN57 is currently Monday 7 November (Day 5 of the meeting), from 11.00-12.30 local Hyderabad time. As with all these sessions, remote participation facilities will be made available for those who will not be present in Hyderabad.
Thanks and cheers
Mary
