I had missed Thomas' original request, so this is really late!<br><br>
My reading of the NGPC letter is:<br><br>
- For the RCRC, what is being requested is that the country names (up to
2 language versions) be prohibited from registration at the 2nd level,
with the possible exception of registration by the RCRC organization in
question. If there are any existing registrations, they will continue to
exist, but if they expire or are otherwise cancelled or deleted, the new
rule applies.<br><br>
- For the IGOs, what is being requested is that post 90 days,
registrations of the "protected" acronyms be allowed without a
claims notice being sent to the prospective registrant, but that after
the registration, the TMCH (or some entity) must advise the IGO that the
registration has taken place.<br><br>
Is this interpretation correct?<br><br>

Sorry for the late response, but didn’t want to “blind side” Chris with
my questions during tomorrow’s meeting.<br>
<br>
I have only two questions<br>
(1) This PDP affects incumbent gTLDs (including new gTLDs), why is
it being handled by the NGPC and not the full board? I have not
received an answer to this process change.<br>
(2) In light of the GAC’s statements in the London Communique, has
the NGPC or Board changed its position on the likelihood that this
approach will be successful? Or is this effort at a compromise
“DOA”?<br>

<br>
All, <br>
we had discussed during the last Council call that it would be helpful to
provide the NGPC / Chris Disspain with questions Councillors might have.
Would you be as kind as to send your questions to the list in preparation
of the upcoming call? <br>
<br>
Thanks and kind regards,<br>
Thomas<br>
