I could agree on you suggestion but let me propose to use a statistical
formal sample. I recall (it was many years ago, when I used to be an
engineer) there is a formula, depending on the "expected
error": 5%, 2%, 1%, 0.5%. All we need is the total popultation
(numbers of survays answered).

Please Paul, could you tell me this number? then I will thell you the
number needed for this sample in order to have 5% 1%, 0.5% of expected
error.

I'm sorry, but the decision to include security and robustness in ICANN
meeting at this time is completly non sense, so I say, let's stick with
our original plans.

I guess everybody is busy with too many meetings, but we should
reschedule for the quality of results.
