I do understand your concern and of course IP has its importance beyond any doubts in fact we deadlock in the middle as both are as important as the other. Let me put my facts down:-</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><ul class="MailOutline"><li class="">Firstly based on ICANN’s philosophy of trust which helped create many ccTLD across the world, the trouble is some ended in private hands and getting let’s say today in Mauritius a .mu costs you at least USD 100, the affordability is up more for businesses. It is long reaching for some if not many small businesses. So they give up and go for .com, .net etc., I remember even when i was with deloitte in Mauritius we decided to go for <a href="http://deloitte-mu.com" class="">deloitte-mu.com</a>. Many negotiations has been happening between the private entity and and govt and ICANN. But none has properly resulted in anything way out. I even proposed that the private entity still be there as the running entity and we make it more commercial but in support of the country and all but the govt has a say but as an observer and we adopt a model like new zealand for example to make it work. Still we deadlocked. Long story short the govt changed went for a .org finally. So this situation of alpha-3 could be a solution for many countries where the situation is not getting better, they could eventually move to alpha-3. It could be the solution for many countries.</li><li class="">Now coming down to Geonames - the very word is geographic names. Actually here i might be in everyones interest that we find a solution like WTO-IP works they classify the IPs for example “Riesling” which we know are special grapes but also wine. But i also hold the Riesling name as a company which i registered with WTO-IP. I am not saying that Govt takes precedence but i would take again Mauritius as an example no one is allowed to for example use the word mauritius in their company officially until the Prime Minister’s office allows you to do so. And the full rights is under the PMO. I would tend to guess it is most likely same in many countries. If within the DNS we could classify country, trademarks etc., we could perhaps have a solution going forward. But we know the DNS does not fully work like that. I feel the need that their needs a evolution of the technology and the way we do things. Am sure their can be solutions it is just that we never thought we would come up to this situation.</li></ul><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">That is my thought process. A country name and something which is registered IP still have two connotations. One is a country name or locality which is also under a register for the government of any country for example we have a “London” in texas as we have a “London” in England. which one or who takes precedence here? And then an IP registered as well called London. The solutions could be simple as they could be sudomains like /<a href="http://london.us" class="">london.us</a> or <a href="http://london.uk" class="">london.uk</a> here having a “.London” may be a challenge but a logical thinking may not bring a solution as to who has the priority. But a change in DNS or RDS improvement may perhaps solve the status quo here.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">To be honest i would love to see a balance and a technical solution that would resolve issues like these. I believe wholeheartedly we need to find solutions i different ways as well than only fight it and come to nothing. I still feel after 10 years the community is grown and needs to stop looking at how things were done in the last decade but technically find solution that resolves everyone’s issues.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Well, i do not propose a solution here per say but food thought. We will even on giving govt precedence we will end up in deadlocks like “amazon” </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Apr 2, 2018, at 21:32, Greg Shatan <<a href="mailto:gregshatanipc@gmail.com" class="">gregshatanipc@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div class=""><div dir="auto" class="">Kris,</div><div dir="auto" class=""><br class=""></div><div dir="auto" class="">What is your basis for thinking that Geonames takes precedence over IP?

'reflexions' in his 'personal capacity'. In the interim, ICANN has
taken several decisions which - for better or worse – depart from
the advice of RFC 3071. We have move on.<br class="">

</li><li class=""><p style="margin-bottom:0in" class="">Granted that there are sometimes
several meanings for certain words in English, and probably in other

in mind that the latter have usually been present long before the former’s associated usage of the same same string.<br class=""><br class="">In any event,
ICANN would, as before, have to deal with potential conflicts

geographical names among themselves. Meanwhile, a significant
proportion of geographical names do not experience multiple uses –
even in English.<br class=""><br class="">I am sure that the question of multiple uses
can be resolved and need not become a 'driver' of the eventual

As a result of the 2012 New gTLD round, we now have hundreds of gTLDs that are .Brands. Brands are conceptually and semantically the opposite of generic. We have dozens of TLDs being used as "geo-names." We also have many that are "purpose specific" and many that are open to use by all without any type of "genus" implied or expressed.
