Zahid,

 

Can you shed any light on the insistence that the validation of data occur
at the regional level between multiple providers?  If a uniquely qualified
organization such as WIPO decided to step forward, why should they be
prohibited from serving as a sole source provider of this validation?

 

Best regards,

 

Michael

Dear All,

 

Had been holding out for comments or approvals to be received from many who
wished time to add their support or comments.  Here is the final draft.
Please let me know if I have left out any important inclusion that may have
reached consensus.  I plan to post this by midday EST.

 

Here are a few highlights of the Special Trademark Issues working group set
up by the GNSO to respond to the Board's letter:

 

Registrar and Registry are vehemently against:

 

 

Post Launch IP Claims:

(Registrar and Registry are vehemently against, IPC probably don't want to
rock the boat with Ry/Rr, NCSG want to ensure that doesn't lead to 'chilling
effect' for individual registrants) - looking tough!

 

 

Domain Name Transfer in case of successful URS by complainant:

Ry/Rr dislike Domain Name Suspension/Block especially without fee in case of
a successful URS complaint.  They would rather just agree to a simple
transfer since it doesn't 'mess' with their protocols.

NCSG against Transfer - they want a mechanism where even though a name is
subject to a URS, a registrant who can demonstrate legitimate interest
should be able to get that domain name. 

IPC agree to transfer but willing to agree to suspension subject to fee
based renewal by Complainant (TM holder)

 

URS-Mandatory?:

NCSG the only ones against making it mandatory but seem to be open to it if
the URS process incorporates more due process protections.

 

 

 

 

Sincerely,
