Interest Statement of Tamara Reznik

 

I am Corporate Counsel for Expedia, Inc. and manage trademark and domain
name matters for all Expedia, Inc. companies, including Hotels.com,
TripAdvisor.com, Hotwire.com, ClassicVacations.com and eLong.com.

 

I am a member of the Registration Practice and DNS Administration
Subcommittee of the International Trademark Association's Internet
Committee.  

 

I am interested in contributing to this Working Group mainly because I
am interested in creating fair and equitable processes regarding the
ownership of domain names and reserved names are a particularly
interesting issue in that process.  I am also interested in examining
whether a reserved names list should contain terms approved as
trademarks by the USPTO, and a fair manner of releasing those names if
they are reserved.  Our companies may benefit from the release of
certain terms from reserved names lists, depending on the rules
allocating the release of the domains.

Subject: RE: [gnso-rn-wg] Interest Statements for all WG members

 

Dear colleagues

 

Just a reminder as the 'fill in chair' for tomorrow. Chuck Gomes, our
chair reminded us on Feb. 2  that all WG members submit Interest
Statements in order to participate in the WG. If there are no statements
submitted then a member will need to drop out and submit the Interest
statement and then return to the WG. He set a deadline of tomorrow's
call. Since Glen is out ill, we are a little handicapped in verifying
who might have sent her an Interest Statement, rather than sending it to
the list.  Thus, if you have submitted an Interest Statement but only to
the chair and Glen, please resend it to our staff support: Tim Denton,
who is cc'd above. If you haven't submitted one yet, please do so by the
time of the call and send it to the list.  Most everyone has their
interest statements in. If there are areas that need additional updates,
that can be done as Chuck did by submitting a 'revised statement of
interest'. 

 

As our chair reminded all - the interests statements should indicate
where you have 'interests' in the outcome of the work of the WG. Most
everyone will have 'interests'. It is important to be transparent about
declaring them. 

 

>From reviewing the list of who has posted the interest statement to the
full list I found the following names;

 

Chuck Gomes

Tim Ruiz

*Although I sent mine in, it was to Chuck and Glen. I'll post it again,
separately. 

 

 

I want to refresh everyone's memory that for the work of the WG, they
should rely on the ToR as the reference document. I saw one question
about whether this WG was limited to second and third level. That is not
the case. The WG is going to address the overall topic of reserved
names, with then several specific categories of the treatment of
reserved names.  If you don't have easy access to the Terms of
Reference, approved by the GNSO Council, I just attached the excerpt
provided by the Secretariat following the Council's affirming vote to
approve the Working Group on Reserved Names. 

 

We will work quickly through the agenda. For those who have reports,
please plan to make them succinct and to have your written documents
posted to the list before the call so that everyone has whatever written
materials you have completed. 

 

The agenda is on the archive. It had a date error on the actual
document. I've fixed the error and pasted a copy of the agenda on this
email. Otherwise, the agenda is as prepared by the Chair and posted 2
Feb 2007. 

 

We will work to a 90 minute schedule for the call. 

 

Thanks, everyone, for your participation. 

 

Remember our work is transcribed so you can refresh your memory of our
work quickly.  

 

To find the archive of the WG, go to www.gnso.icann.org
<http://www.gnso.icann.org/> ; look on the far left 'blue' list, click
on mailing lists, and scroll down to Task Force Mailing List Archives.
You will see the reserved names WG as the last entry there...
