RE: [gnso-sti]

["Zahid Jamil" <zahid@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Jon,

 

I would not see it appropriate to belittle any one's views.  My
understanding was that these are final positions - I had expressed these on
the last call and on several calls but with little or no engagement - these
positions are not new.

 

The BC members do not see the Clearinghouse as beneficial - this has been
expressed by my members so I would not venture to explain to them how the
view they hold is 'inaccurate'.  Happy to invite anyone interested to speak
to my members if they so wish.  Until then I am afraid the view is held by
the BC.

 

 

In any case:

 

If the BC is inaccurate about the benefits to its members then what of the
benefit/cost reductions to Registries?

 

Also we are far far away from the IRT - the tapestry has been shredded -
thus, there is no comparison to the recommendations of the IRT and what we
have today.  In any case the STI is not subject to the IRT - nor are any of
the SGs/Constituencies bound by it. 

 

 

With regard to circumvention - If the Clearinghouse is supposed to be an RPM
or remedy to defensive registrations then it fails since registrants would
just wait until launch.  A prospective TM Holder would not see any benefit
in that especially since the IP Claims notice is nothing more than a notice
-which is available from current watch notices- what protection does it
provide?

 

 

 

Sincerely,

I agree with Jeff.  Many of these edits belong only in a minority report . .
. if anywhere.  

 

It would be great if the BC would highlight the differences between this STI
consensus TM Clearinghouse proposal and the IRT IP Clearinghouse consensus
proposal that has caused it to garner such ire and derision?  

 

I also agree with Jeff that the BC cannot be accurate in its claim that a
centralized sunrise database doesn't benefit BC members at all and that it
benefits registries over its BC members.  

 

This addition is particularly inaccurate, especially in the context of a
sunrise process.  

 

"The possibility to circumvent the whole Clearinghouse system due to its
inapplicability to Post launch thereby allowing gaming and making it
irrelevant in the first 30 seconds of lunch."

 

How would the Clearinghouse be circumvented, gamed, or irrelevant in a
Sunrise process?  Also, Jeff, is it fair to assume that the IP Claims
process wasn't gamed and rendered irrelevant during the .biz roll-out?  What
is the difference now?

 

Finally, what's the relevance of when lunch is served anyway J?

I have to say I am disappointed in the BC comments and believe that we
should have a call to discuss this. I do not believe the BC minority
position should be sprinkled throughout each and every recommendation.  A
note should indicate there is a minority position and state that at the end.
In addition, the BC should not use this report as an advocacy piece, but
rather stick to the facts.  Lets discuss on our call, but the Registries are
not very happy with how this has come out either, but we are willing to live
with compromise.  The BC statement talking about the Clearinghouse
benefitting only the Registries is not only incorrect, but is a complete
distortion of reality.   The BC can make their arguments to the GNSO and to
the Board, but there is no place for that kind of statement in this report.
