Dear all,

Thanks Lynn and Kim.

Here is another version of 3.2 incorporating some more of the points.  I am
highlighting changes above those already incorporated by Kim.

3.2. The second deliverable is to perform surveys on a global scope in
multiple languages and scripts, compile and analyze the results and report
findings.  A minimum of ten (10) key countries is required and must be
reasonably distributed across countries in the Asia Pacific region, the
Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa and shall include, at least,
3 developing
countries. The surveys must collect a minimum of 100 responses per country.
 Surveys should be conducted in the language that is local for each country.
 A fair and balanced approach must be employed to canvass all age and gender
groups equally.


regards,
Sarmad
