Re: [gnso-sti] Rule 56 - some suggestions

[Konstantinos Komaitis <k.komaitis@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Zahid,

Thank you very much for taking the lead on re-wording Rule 56 and for using
language that is also understandable by the non-American community. I think
your language makes it much clearer.

One point, however, that I think we need to change: in your document you
have inserted ³and evidence that the domain name was registered and/or is
being used abusively to infringe the trademark². For compatibility reasons
with the URS and the UDRP elements, I believe that we need to say: ³and
evidence that the domain name was registered and is being used abusively to
infringe the trademark². Basically, I suggest we remove the word ?or¹ from
this section. Throughout the UDRP practice, it has always been bad faith
registration AND use; I suggest we stick to this requirement, especially
since we use the UDRP language as a template for much of the URS.

Thank you very much

Best
Konstantinos
