Notes:
Review of Questions:
· Batching of questions 2, 3, 15 possibly 8
· Batching of questions 4, 5 and 6
· Batching of questions 7 and 9
· Moving charter Q4 from Trademark Claims to Sunrise
“Is the TMCH and the Sunrise Period allowing key domain names to be cherry-picked and removed from New gTLDs unrelated to those of the categories of goods and services of the trademark owner (e.g., allowing “Windows” to be removed from a future .CLEANING by Microsoft)?”
· Adding a question on Sunrise Dispute Resolution Policy (SDRP) - This is present in the RPM Requirements to challenge a TM registration in the TMCH that should not be included
· Distinction needed between the SDRP minimum requirements from the AGB and ithe TMCH dispute process - note where overlaps may exist
· Will the scope of SDRP need to be expanded in the context of TMs included in the TMCH due to statutes/treaties?
· Suggestion to eliminate Q10 on compromised SMD files, and recommend including them in the TMCH questions
· Possibly hold a capacity building exercise explaining what and SMD file is, how it is validated/used
· Should Q10 be reworded and evaluated on where it belongs (in Sunrise or TMCH review)?
· Possible to park Q14 "gaming" - Keep the question, but observer how/if it is resolved on the full Working Group list
