[bc-gnso] Registry Conf Call & Proposal for meeting with .BRANDS

["Ron Andruff" <randruff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good morning all.

 

Just sending a note to the list to inquire as to how many BC members will be
on the Registry call that is starting now?  Perhaps our Secretriat could
pull together a list for everyone's benefit?

 

Separately, in preparation for this call I was going through the filings and
came to realize (again) that that there are 637 .BRANDS from the 1900.  Many
of them are brands we know and some are BC members.  Others we don't know.

 

Question for the Ex  Com: Would it not make sense to invite the .BRANDS to
come to meet the BC in Beijing?  For my part, it would be extremely helpful
to hear from them and to have an opportunity to learn more.  Perhaps we
could invite them for the CSG breakfast on Tuesday, if guests have not
already been scheduled for that meeting slot. 

 

It seems to me that BC members would benefit greatly from meeting with
businesses that are applying for top-level domains.

 

My two cents.

 

Kind regards,

 

RA
