RE: [gnso-igo-ingo] Sub-team Mailing Lists

[Kiran Malancharuvil <kmalancharuvil@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Ricardo and all,

Regarding the UPU's comment in reference to the Nairobi Treaty (Column E, Row 
4), the IOC respectfully submits the following concerns.

The IOC agrees that the Nairobi Treaty is limited in scope to the protection of 
the Olympic Symbol (five interlocking rings).  In fact, the IOC expressly 
acknowledges that fact under "Scope of Protection and Limitations."  However, 
the mere existence of the Nairobi Treaty demonstrates that the international 
community has acknowledged that the intellectual property of the IOC is 
particularly vulnerable and that the organization itself is worthy of special 
protections.  The IOC believes that the Nairobi Treaty is relevant to the 
inquiry of this group for that reason.  Many countries have followed with 
legislation that protects the Olympic words for the same reason that the 
Nairobi Treaty was enacted.

We respectfully suggest that concerns about the relevance of the Nairobi Treaty 
to the work of this group are best addressed under "Connection of Identified 
Harm to the National Law."  We believe that answering "no" to the inquiry about 
whether the IOC enjoys treaty protection is misleading.

Best regards,

Dear Berry and All,

Please find attached the UPU's comments and suggested edits to the spreadsheet 
(marked in blue italics), which are particularly necessary in order to correct 
certain legal inconsistencies and statements concerning the status of IGOs (as 
well as the necessity for protection of their names and acronyms). Other 
revisions of a more fundamental nature would also be necessary as far as the « 
nature of the problem » is concerned.

With best wishes for 2013,

Ricardo Guilherme

Subject: [gnso-igo-ingo] Sub-team Mailing Lists

Team,

It was requested to redistribute the sub-team mailing lists at today's meeting. 
 Again, if you had not specifically signed up for a sub-team, you did not get 
added to these sub-team lists and therefore you will not be able to mail the 
list directly.  If you have suggestions or edits to any one or all of work 
packages, please coordinate your proposal to the team lead for that respective 
sub-team.  You are welcome to email the team lead directly, or I suggest just 
using the gnso-igo-ingo@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:gnso-igo-ingo@xxxxxxxxx> mailing list.
