  Darlene:This needs to be CLEARLY explained to EVERYBODY

  Yrjö Länsipuro:+1

  Heidi Ullrich: This needs to be CLEARLY explained to EVERYBODY - Darlene, could you please let me know the details of this?

  Rudi Vansnick:+1

  Heidi Ullrich:Should a wiki page be set up to collect comments?

  Darlene:Expressly what Cheryl is reading right now.  SO many people have NO CLUE what the DNS is and why it matters at all.

  Rudi Vansnick:SOLD !

  Heidi Ullrich:I'm working with Communications to see if this document could be presented in Prague in a polished format - with diagrams and photos...

  Darlene:Awesome, Heidi

  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:would recommend a change to re-word the definition of domain hack

  Heidi Ullrich:Should the glossary be reduced in length to only include terms used in the document?

  Heidi Ullrich:Currently the glossary is the same length of the main text.

  Rudi Vansnick:glossary seems good to me, do not cut it as not everybody has a good and full understanding of these terms

  Heidi Ullrich:valid point

  Darlene:Agree with Dev - there can also be Hotmail and Facebook hacks - just happened to a friend of mine last week.

  Rudi Vansnick:hacks can be on any aspect of the internet, we consider here only domain name hacks

  Darlene:No, happy with examples

  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:true, but I'm concerned with the example cited

  Darlene:K -- Dev - see what you mean now.  Go for it.

  Darlene:Yes, it needs to be shorter.

  Darlene:Totally

  Rudi Vansnick:do we consider that everybody understands well the terms and side-terms ?

  Darlene:I belive it lives in GNSO-world, but its really good.

  Darlene:Yes

  Darlene:Agreed

  Darlene:Do we have a metrics meeting today?

  Heidi Ullrich:No.

  Darlene:ty
