I have reviewed the recommendations and have a number of comments and 
suggestions.

R5.1 - Phrase in BLUE added for clarification

Specifically added: The ICANN Board should direct the ICANN 
Organization to look for potentially-anomalous ARS results (e.g., 40% 
of ARS-generated tickets closed with no action because the RDS 
(WHOIS) record changed between the time the ARS report was generated 
and the time the registration was reviewed by Contractual Compliance) 
to determine the underlying cause and take appropriate action to 
reduce anomalies.
======

R10.1 - PP deadline: By the time the Board accepts these 
recommendations (ie about July 2019) or 31 Dec 2019.
======

R10.2 - Should this be "RDS (WHOIS) review team" instead of 
"RDS-WHOIS review team"?
======

R11.2 - Strongly believe that the recommendation should be focused on 
results and not methodology for achieving that. And particularly 
should not focus on the methodologies which my be unable to predice 
desired results. Therefore remove reference to Port 43. Also, clarify 
why two versions may be needed.

Suggested re-wording:

The ICANN Board should direct the ICANN Organization to continue to 
maintain the common interface to keep up to date with new policy 
developments or contractual changes for contracted parties to ensure 
that the common interface will display all publicly-available RDS 
(WHOIS) output for each gTLD domain name registration available from 
contracted parties, i.e., when they differ, both the registry and 
registrar RDS (WHOIS) output could be shown in parallel.
======

CM.2 - I know I raised the is of whether this covered MISSING or does 
not meet current verification standards, but do not recall the result.
======

CM.4 - Perhaps too late to bring this up now, but do we want to 
consider a footnote saying we are considering expanding the Rec to 
include a Rec that CC consider different, more efficient methodology 
in analyzing bulk data submissions where such data identifies 
patterns of problems.
======

The specific changes to R5.1 and R11.2 are in the attached redline.
