Glen, Tim is correct.  Can you make these changes on all versions?

Please be sure that the question numbering is accurate.  For example,
question 21 refers to question 19, when I think it should be referring to
question 20.  Similarly, question 53 should refer to 52.

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.
