 for an expert with the perspective of defending UDRP actions (an omission that occured in part because, as found by the Ombudsman, the BC failed to provide its members with timely notice of the opportunity to apply for IRT membership), as someone who made
 detailed and thoughtful&nbsp;critiques of the IRT process and Report generally without ever pounding on the table, and as a representative of a group that is genuinely opposed to trademark infringement and would like the opportunity to contribute to a constructive

</font><br>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Zahid, your analysis is extremely helpful.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a few thoughts. One is about how disturbing this is as a 'precedent', as well as the specifics of what has actually taken place in terms of the outcome/content; e.g. what the present proposals are/and the work before the Council on the Board letter.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I had understood that this letter would be part of your Council/Board dinner. If that is the case, it would be helpful to keep that in mind and plan to have a discussion with the BC membership again on Monday, BEFORE the Tuesday a.m. breakfast.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When we discuss this at the ad hoc huddle &nbsp;tonight, can we also get a debrief from you not only on this, but also on how the discussions go today with the GAC.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You are making a point that I have a concern about as well. It appears that due to somewhat overwrought pounding on the table by a small extremely vocal set of players! /people, significant changes have been made.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The way that the IRT was set up was driven by a Board resolution. The initial approach to the participants was in fact broadened from the 7-8 IP attorneys chosen by the IPC into a broadened approach that was not totally open, but was composed of 'experts'.
 The work product was then put out for consultation and comments taken.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am thinking that what we are seeing is that the staff then made major changes, having taken comments 'selectively' into account.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think we have to ask ourselves the following: IRT recommendations, and following on comments. &nbsp;On balance, based on the predominance of comments, do we think that the staff recommendations /proposals reflect the comments fairly and on balance?&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I ask that question because I am thinking about 'recourse' if we believe that our interests are harmed by this acti! on/failure of action.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Will be very good to talk about this tonight.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
