On 21 March 2000, Working Group B presented a status report to the DNSO Names Council concerning its study of methods for protection of globally famous trademarks in gTLDs. This Public Comment Forum is dedicated to the discussion of that report and the issues Working Group B has been studying. The Names Council will discuss the report and public comments on it at an 18 April 2000 telephone meeting and intends to provide a report to the ICANN Board by 20 April 2000.
