FICPI supports the IRT Final Report

["Petter Rindforth" <petter.rindforth@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FICPI, the International Federation of Intellectual Property Attorneys,
broadly representative of the free profession of more than 86
countries/regions, supports the conclusions and proposals of the IRT Final
Report.

 

The proposals are well balanced and provide important measures to protect
not only large trademark holders, but also the rights of small and medium
sized right holders as well as consumer rights - the latter especially
through the IP Clearinghouse, the URS and the Thick Whois Model.

 

Although there may be some technical details to solve before implementation,
it is essential that the proposals of the IRT are adopted by ICANN _before_
the introduction of any new TLDs.
