Carlton Samuels:Header wrong!
Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro:[back now]
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:there are several more charts for the PAD :
Evan Leibovitch:Note: I had serious concerns that the consumer WG statement ignored the real end-user issues and focuses on the needs of registrants. As such, I wrote (and the WG graciously accepted) text that I wrote about the scope of the document, in which the WG acknowledges that its work leaves out much that is important in evaluating the gTLD program's affect on end-user trust, choice and confidence
Heidi Ullrich:https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Meetings+-+Sunday%2C+11+March+2012
