[gnso-sti] Non-verified marks

[Alan Greenberg <alan.greenberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

I went to the IRT report to see how it treated the issue of marks 
from jurisdictions that do not do any checking (for want of a better term).
Since the only language regarding sunrise is that, among other 
things, the trademarks can be pulled by the registry, this seems to 
imply that the registry can pull whatever marks it wishes, and is not 
bound to use ALL of the TMs in the core database. There is no 
restriction mentioned that such selectivity must be only based on the 
class of service or on the charter of the registry. Can we not be as 
silent on this as seemingly was the IRT report, and let registries 
use the data however they wish.
I presume that this corresponds to how registries have performed 
sunrises without the clearinghouse, specifically deciding for them 
selves what types of marks to allow or disallow. Has anyone been sued 
over such selectivity to date?
