RE: [gnso-udrp-dt] Action Items From Today's UDRP-DT Call

["Rosette, Kristina" <krosette@xxxxxxx>]

Mary,

I'm not familiar with any of Eric Goldman's work on UDRP.  (I am familiar with 
his work on other issues).   Can you send some links around to some 
representative articles, etc.?

Thanks.

K

Another academic who is familiar with the UDRP is Eric Goldman (Santa Clara). I 
know him quite well and can ask him informally if he'd be available and would 
like to participate.

It's true that neither Michaels F nor G have done much recent academic work on 
UDRP issues - Geist does track studies and updates though. I can also ask him 
if folks would like, although maybe I won't if we agree on asking Konstantinos 
and Eric.

Let me know,
Mary

Margie, et. al.,

In socializing the names of the people we talked about inviting to speak I have 
come to think we should try to offer more breadth and less duplication of view.

In that vein, I would second Jeff Neuman's suggestion that Konstantinos 
Komaitis be invited.

Further, I think Jonathan Cohen should be added, too, perhaps in place of 
either Geist or Froomkin.

Cheers,

Berard

Dear All,
Here is a brief summary of the action items arising from today's call related 
to the UDRP Webinar scheduled for May 10th:
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->I will reach out the UDRP 
providers to clarify my request for recommendations for speakers.  
Specifically, the request  was intended to identify individuals  that 
quantitatively had the most appearances before the provider in each of the 
categories.   This clarification seeks to use objective rather than subjective 
metrics to identify speaks in each categories (panelists, respondents, 
complainants, etc.).
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->I will contact the Registrar 
Stakeholder Group to identify up to 3 individuals from registrars which 
implement the largest numbers of UDRP cases, from which one speaker would be 
selected that could speak on behalf of the registrar stakeholder group on 
issues that are of concern to the RrSG as a whole, and not reflective of only 
the views of his/her registrar.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->With regard to selection of 
the speaker from the academic perspective,  the DT discussed Mary's 
recommendations of Michael Froomkin (Miami) and Michael Geist (Ottawa)-it was 
noted that these individuals may no longer be conducting research/analysis on 
the UDRP and that their publications on the topic may be dated.   The DT is 
seeking to confirm this assumption and/or identify other academics with recent 
work on the UDRP.  [Mary- perhaps you can elaborate on your understanding of 
their recent work?]
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Since several providers were 
unable to provide recommendations by today's call due to the Easter holidays,  
the DT deferred reviewing recommended speakers, and will finalize the list on 
Friday's call.  To date-  the following names have been received:
Hong Kong Arbitration Centre suggests:
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->UDRP panelists

    *   Mr. Christopher TO
    *   Mr. Anthony WU
 *   Attorneys
    *   Ms. Gabriela Kennedy  (Represents Complainants)
 *   National Arbitration Forum (NAF) suggests:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->o   <!--[endif]-->Panelists:
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->Sally Able
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->David Safran
<!--[if !supportLists]-->o   <!--[endif]-->Complainants (outside counsel)
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->Paul Mc Grady
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->Andy Coombs
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->David Steele
<!--[if !supportLists]-->o   <!--[endif]-->Complainants (inside counsel)
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->Renee Reuter
<!--[if !supportLists]-->o   <!--[endif]-->Respondents (outside counsel)
<!--[if !supportLists]-->§  <!--[endif]-->John Berryhill
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->The DT is considering 
including a representative from ICANN Compliance (Khalil Rasheed) to 
participate in the Webinar, to briefly share its experience of issues that 
arise with regard to implementation of the UDRP.
The next call is this Friday Apr 29 at 1500 UTC due to the need to send out 
invitations to speakers this week.
Best regards,
Margie
