<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I do not disagree with the notion that we should discuss what a decision should contain, but I don’t think we have a consensus as to what that should be in the
 URS context (given the pricing of URS proceedings).  Moreover, a review of the URS cases makes your 13% number and comment of “significant due process and implementation issues” point questionable.  At NAF for example, there were 827 cases that that your research
 assistants reviewed.  I found a total of about 103 that your team flagged as having no articulated decisions.  I would agree that in 58 cases the decisions lacked details, but in 45 cases there were details that sufficiently let you know what the case was
 about and the basis of the resolution.  I am sure we can argue about these 45 cases and whether they should say more, but ultimately we are really only talking about 58 cases that actually do not have any specific details and just provide the standard and
 a resolution (although I note that most of these cases involve domain names based on fairly well known marks such as NISSAN, DATSUN, TEXACO, BLOOMBERG, BNP PARIBAS etc., so you pretty much know what trademark was involved.).  In all, we are really talking
 about 7% of the cases that have no details, which is not significant.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 details).  There are other issues being considered in the URS review that have better percentage numbers as an issue that are viewed as not being significant per se. The point is that the URS looks to be working appropriately and there are probably some tweaks
 and refinements needed but this is not sky is falling issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
