A written opinion, however, must be carefully considered, and must be comprehensive. That is to say, many billable hours = costly.<br>
<br>
Now, it really is worth doing this where there is a specific, well drawn &quot;qualified question&quot; to be answered.<br>
<br>
But a widely drawn brief is a recipe for a result that is<br>
<br>
(a) confusing additionally or alternatively confused; and<br>
(b) extremely expensive.<br>
<br>
I&#39;m as keen as Kavouss and Paul to have a briefing on how ICANN-PTI&#39;s obligations have changed since transition, both in law (I suspect not at all ) and de facto (which clearly has changed, from changes in the way existing policy is being interpreted).<br>

But let&#39;s have focus.<div class="quoted-text"><br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I was not on the call and have not had to bandwidth to look at the<br>
recordings. If this is about Sam&#39;s response to the questions Greg was<br>
asking us to provide.<br>
<br>
Then I think the ideal thing is to document the responses side by side<br>
with the questions.<br>
<br>
A verbal response whether captioned or not should not be applicable<br>
after all the responses must have been documented somewhere before it<br>
was being read out by Sam, so why not just share the document and let&#39;s<br>
end this seemingly trivial matter.<br>

    With captioning, don&#39;t we already have an equivalent to written answers?<br>

    &gt; Kindly direct your request to the Subgroup, and not to Sam.  This is a<br>
