I think your analysis is essentially correct, but I think point 1 is backwards. Since (in the current draft), based on the registry entries, the third level queries will usually not take place. It's not that the PSOs are constrained not to publish records (they aren't), it's that no one will (should) query for them based on the third level test if they aren't in the registry. This may seem like a small thing, but I believe it makes all the difference. You are certainly correct that nothing in an RFC can prevent a PSO from publishing such records. What we can do is give guidance on when not to look at them. I believe avoiding the privacy implications of the related feedback are worth the transactional costs of the registry (but then I would, wouldn't I). I don't think a bad situation justifies making it worse. Scott K
