Notes/ Action Items Chair: Kathy Kleiman
1. Review Agenda/Statements of Interest Updates: No updates 2. Discussion of Individual URS Proposals (See: https://community.icann.org/x/aACNBQ) 1. George Kirikos (#5): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-5.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Statute of limitations is based on known or should have known. -- Question: How does this proposal deal with issues of continuing harm? How to deal with the issue of known or should have known? -- Worth getting public comments on. -- Put into the Initial Report for discussion. There is support for and against. -- There has been no survey of national law. -- This would create an exception that could blow a hole in the policy. -- Worthy for further review and discussion. -- Needs to be put on the table for discussion. -- Ripe for discussion. Response: -- Didn't make a latches proposal because it is more complicated to prove. -- Useful to survey national law. -- Re: "submarine registration" it is a possibility but they would have to be paying renewal costs in the mean time. -- Still a recourse to the courts for all other disputes.
2. George Kirikos (#7): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-7.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Support including the proposal in the Initial Report.. -- No legal contact right now in the WHOIS. Requirement for everyone is high burden. -- Revise proposal to say, "If a legal contact is required then in that case..."? -- Seems like we would be making recommendations where other parts of the community are working. -- Think it is okay to make recommendations for other groups. Response: -- Isn't meant to force someone to have a legal contact if they don't want one. It is just another means of contact in the WHOIS.
3. George Kirikos (#8): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-8.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Don't know what this proposal does that doesn't already exist in the URS. -- Don't know how the three days would equate to more than what they can already do. -- The issue with actual notice not sure if you drag it out for 3 more days’ notice will be achieved. -- Seems to be effectively a limitation period. -- Would increase the time (contrary to "rapid). -- In the Sub Team analysis there was no evidence of people missing the notifications. Response: -- Having the additional time period would reduce incidences of default and suspensions. -- Seems like rapid doesn't apply to bringing complaint. -- High rate of default is evidence of the problem.
4. Marie Pattullo (staff to present on behalf of Marie) (#13): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-13.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Good intention, but could be problematic to implement. Could be impossible for a registrar to handle on its own. Interested in how to overcome the technical problems. -- Would be interested in the evidence. Is it happening? Does it happen often? Check with Berry Cobb re: evidence of a losing registrant re-registering. -- Sufficient merit for going into the Initial Report. -- Creative proposal. Need to distinguish implementation changes from policy challenges. -- Costly monitoring burden on the trademark holder. -- Strongly oppose putting out for public comment when it is impossible to implement. Cannot distinguish between registrants even within the same registrar. -- Seems to be unbalanced. Response: Staff will convey the discussion from the transcript and the chat for Marie to respond to.
5. George Kirikos (#12): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-12.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Strongly opposed. Challenge: If you transfer a trademark to a new owner and they do something different with it then the clock does reset. -- Support including it in the Initial Report. -- In the UDRP there is a lot of ambiguity of what the creation date represents. Ambiguity if a domain is deleted and then re-registered. Area worthy of further discussion. -- Interesting but needs further development. -- It's binary -- either it exists or it does not. Response: -- Overriding concern is that we want to have safe harbors for when a TM is transfered. -- Conceivably a domain name could not be fully deleted. -- Statute of limitations would be another way to handle it.
6. George Kirikos (#18): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-18.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Needs to be reworked. Not sure it is universally applicable. -- This has been extensively debated in the IGO/INGO. -- Real problem if the policies are worded in a way that courts aren't allowing it. -- There is no real problem here -- it is an outlier case. -- Not sure in favor of the proposals as currently written. There are -- Worth getting community feedback. Response: -- There were at least 2 cases in the UK and also in Australia.
7. George Kirikos (#19): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal-19.pdf?api=v2 Discussion: -- Does address the concern among some WG members that ICANN cannot decide what case a court will here. This proposal would be able to effect how courts deal with subsequent action following URS. -- In the URS there are multiple avenues for appeal. The registrant does have avenues for recourse. Response: -- Not fair to say that there are multiple avenues for recourse in the URS since it doesn't have the same recourses as a court.
