Re: [dow2tf] Whois tf 2 survey - clearing up confusion
Hi Milton: Actually, the intention of the task force to allow responses from the general community, constituency representatives, as well as the constituencies as a whole in the form of more coordinated responses. In fact, the cover sheet on the questionnaire (approved by the task force) is quite explicit in this regard: Although these questions have been distributed to each of the GNSO constituencies, the task force would be glad to receive responses from any individuals or organizations that have a knowledge or interest regarding this matter. Responses that are not made on behalf of a constituency should include an indication of the author's affiliation and interest in Whois privacy. The data gathering that we are doing is qualitative as opposed to quantitative, so sheer number of responses should not be a primary consideration by the analysis teams. Additionally, we have asked respondents to identify their affiliation and interest in the use of the Whois data, which should make it possible for team members to place responses in "buckets" relating to particular GNSO constituencies if they feel it is appropriate to do so.
