Dear Ariel, I would like to get involved in the test, Thanks! If there is anything I can do, please do not hesitate to contact me. Best regards, -- Zhou Heng Ph.d Candidate Renmin University of China 在 2018-08-02 04:37:03，Ariel Liang <ariel.liang@icann.org> 写道： Dear RPM WG Members, Analysis Group is seeking volunteers to be the Beta Testers for the TMCH Sunrise & Trademark Claims surveys. The Beta Testing is expected to be held sometime next week (the week of 06 August). As mentioned during the RPM WG call today, Beta Testers are preferably the WG members who are not involved in developing the survey questions, and the ones who have a willingness to go through one or more surveys. Analysis Group advised that around 3-4 beta testers per survey is optimal. There will be a total of four surveys, each targeting registry operators, registrars, trademark/brand owners, or actual/potential registrants. No particular skills are required for a beta tester. Of course, if the volunteer has some familiarity with the target respondent for the survey, it would be very helpful. If you are willing to volunteer to be a beta tester, please email ariel.liang@icann.org by COB Monday, 06 August. You are welcome to specify which survey(s) you are particularly interested in doing the beta testing for. We have noted that David McAuley would like to volunteer – thank you David! Thank you for in advance for your time and help! Best Regards, Mary, Julie, Ariel, and Berry

Hi Ariel, would you mind clarifying whether, having been a beta tester, someone would then be excluded from participating once the surveys roll-out properly? My assumption would be not, but I’m not sure we ever discussed this in the Data Sub team. As far as I can see there would be no reason why a beta tester could not later be a survey respondent, since they are not gaining any special advantage from seeing an early version of the survey, merely helping confirm whether it is understandable and user-friendly. Can you confirm?
