[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] PLEASE COMPLETE SURVEY to detect consensus on Options A, B or C

[George Kirikos]

Personally, after some thought, I think it would have been best for
all responses to have been to the mailing list, so that all PDP
members had equal and transparent access to the survey results (given
ICANN is supposed to operate as transparently as possible). Is there a
public link to the survey responses?

I already closed the survey, but here's my response, paraphrased from
my best memory (others might want to post their views, too), is (no
surprises here):

1.  "Support" --- first best option; ensures due process and supremacy
of the legal system; initiation of a UDRP doesn't affect legal rights,
regardless of who is the initiator (IGO or non-IGO complainant)

2. "Support" --- second best option, compared with "Option A". Takes
into account that IGOs pushed for this review due to fears of
cybersquatting in new gTLDs (although Option C would apply to newly
created domains regardless of gTLD).

3. "Do Not Support" -- if the old Option #6 was *fully* incorporated
into Option C (namely, registrars being instructed that they must
freeze the domain name if a judicial review is sought "in rem" by the
registrant, instead of just "in personam" as it is now the case), I
might update to "I can live with this option", but "Option C" is still
not fully fleshed out so I must vote "Do Not Support"

Sincerely,

George Kirikos
