Thanks very much. I have one last follow-up to my original questions.

You have Professor Scassa, who has been involved on the board. You have Ann Cavoukian, who was involved on the board and stepped away. Those two—and including Mr. Geist—have been very serious privacy advocates. I would even say that I think our committee has maybe not gone as far in our recommendations as we could have.

Are you comfortable now with the commitment to de-identification and subsequent conversations with Ms. Cavoukian that they 're supportive of the path forward?
