<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">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).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<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). 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?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best, Kathy<o:p></o:p></p>
