[council] RE: [nc-udrp] UDRP Review Questionnaire.]

["Chicoine, Caroline G." <CCHICOINE@thompsoncoburn.com>]

Great, can you actually extend the deadline to Feb 6th so it will be a one
month extension?  

I am copying Glen with a request to update the deadlines in the Terms of
Reference document as set forth below, as well as to post something on the
DNSO website and the GA that the deadline for responses has been extended to
February 6th.

I am also copying the council so that they can advise their respective
Constituency accordingly.

November 2, 2001 - February 6, 2002

Questionnaire submitted to public for response at least via ICANN's website,
and via each UDRP provider's website where permitted. 

November 1, 2001 - March 1, 2002

Task Force reviews results of questionnaire, as well as any third party
studies directed to the UDRP including without limitation the Syracuse
University study, the Max Plank Institute study and the Rose Communication
study. Based on the results of the questionnaire and those studies, the Task
Force shall prepare a Report summarizing the areas identified as needing
reform and the recommendations to implement such reform. Again, the Task
Force will attempt to translate this Report from English into as many other
languages as possible. 

March 1, 2002 - March 10, 2002

The Task Force's Report forwarded to Names Council for review. 

March 10-14, 2002

Names Council votes on Report in Ghana.

March 14, 2002 - April 14, 2002 

Task Force creates implementation schedule.

Caroline,

Our goal is to post the survey on Sunday with a closing date of Feb 1. 
I believe that this schedule is consistent with your committee's wishes;
let me know if I got it wrong.

The survey will be the same as on the DNSO site, except for:

   * Enhanced response areas (still mainly free form, but more room to
type)
   * Addition of a few optional multiple-choice questions about the
nature/experience of the respondent that can be tabulated.  This was
helpful in handling the Whois survey.
   * Addition of a space for respondent's e-mail address.  This is not
to be published, but used to allow respondents to see their responses
and correct them if they desire.  This was also done on the Whois
survey.

Louis

Louis I will be giving an update at the next NC teleconference and I was
wondering if and when ICANN would be posting the UDRP Questionnaire on
its
website and in that regard, I would like to know in advance so we can
reset
the deadlines based on when it will be posted.

Louis, have you had a chance to look at this.  We would like to post
asap so
we can advise people of the new deadline but I want to set the deadline
based on when it is posted on the ICXANN website.

Louis I believe we cleared up any problems people had so can we post on
ICANN website.



Also, Glen can you extend the deadline for submitting comments until
February 1, 2002

That would move the following deadlines as follows:
November 2, 2001 - February 1, 2002

Questionnaire submitted to public for response at least via ICANN's
website,
and via each UDRP provider's website where permitted. 

November 1, 2001 - March 1, 2002

Task Force reviews results of questionnaire, as well as any third party
studies directed to the UDRP including without limitation the Syracuse
University study, the Max Plank Institute study and the Rose
Communication
study. Based on the results of the questionnaire and those studies, the
Task

Jeff and other Task Force members:

An extension to Feb 1st would probably allow data to be analyzed
in time for Ghana.

I think the extension is certainly warranted given the holiday season. 
I
would even propose to make it a little bit longer.  I know the WHOIS and
IDN
survey deadlines were extended at least once.  That being said, I am
also
cognizant of the fact that we want to have some data analyzed by the
Ghana
meeting.

Thanks.

I believe that the DNSO Secretariat has made the changes that some
people
were concerned about so are we all in agreement that it is acceptable.
ICANN will not post it unless I can tell them we are all on board. 
Rather
than have everyone respond yes (which I hope si the case)  If anyone
still
has problems, please email me ASAP.

In addition, given the delays in getting it posted on the ICANN website,
I
propose to extend the deadline to January 17th as suggested by Milton. 
Does
anyone have any objections?

I think we need to go through one more 
round of preparing the questionnaire
before posting it to ICANN.

Accordingly, I would formally request that
we move the closure of comments back to January 17.

I have asked ICANN to publish the questionnaire on its website, but
based on
the email exchanges below, it wants me to confirm whether it is ready
for
posting.  It does not want to post it if we are then going to ask for
changes or retract some of it.  

Are we all satisfied that the questionnaire in its current form is okay
for
posting by ICANN? Personally, I think we should go forward since the
questionnaire has been out for a week and I think changing course snow
would
be disruptive, but I need to hear your thoughts, ASAP please.
