<p>Hi All, With apologies, I may not be able to attend today's call. I support sending out our questions to Registries and probably to Registrars to (as edited).&nbsp; 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?&nbsp; Would response to Analysis Group be confidential until compiled and anonymized? Basically, are we better off with our own path?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best, Kathy<o:p></o:p></p>
