Hello Alexander
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thanks for reminding us all in easy to read format where we got to in 2012.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Simple question though…why are you wanting to change the definition of a city for the purposes of new TLD applications? Having arbitrary definitions based on size (which changes over time) and which don’t really help an applicant seems strange
to me?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Maybe I have missed another good reason to “impose” a new size definition in the criteria?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If you could explain that (and don’t worry if you have to repeat yourself) then perhaps I will better understand why that is a good thing to consider? </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>

based on quantitative thresholds suffer from randomness. I do not support the use of the letter of support/non-objection for other reasons already noted on the list, but these proposals create more problems. AND Heather Forrest:+1 Liz - and indeed I should
have said 'arbitrariness' rather than 'randomness' (apologies- it's early morning here in APAC!)). I'm sorry that I had to drop the call soon after to attend another meeting, so was unable to provide context or answer questions.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property (to which 177 countries are a member), was ultimately not adopted by the GNSO or implemented in the AGB. There is a very long history here that goes back to the Implementation Review Team (several
highly experienced members of this PDP were members of that RT), but for our purposes I’ll just highlight that protection of famous trademarks through a ‘Globally Protected Marks List’ (often referred to then as ‘GPML’) was rejected due to equivalent concerns
as those raised by myself and others in our call about the use of quantitative, geographic eligibility criteria for protection.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

on the GPML. The inherently arbitrary nature of quantitative, geographical criteria (e.g., the mark being protected by registration in a specified number of jurisdictions in each of the five ICANN regions) was vigorously debated at ICANN35 in June 2009. At
United States Congressional oversight hearings on new gTLDs in May 2011, ICANN’s then Senior Vice President for Stakeholder Relations cited concerns expressed by WIPO as to the mechanics of such a list and opposition from the GAC as chief obstacles to its
implementation in new gTLD policy.<sup class=""><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></sup>He concluded: ‘The time, commitment and resources (from ICANN and the community) needed to create and maintain such a list would provide only marginal benefits
as such a list would apply to only a small number of names and only for identical matches of those names.’<span class="gmail-msofootnotereference"><sup class=""></sup></span> (<a href="https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/pritz-to-goodlatte-07jun11-en.pdf" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/pritz-to-goodlatte-07jun11-en.pdf</a>)<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

before in meetings and submissions, I do not personally support this conclusion), we must be prepared to explain in detail in the Final Report how these criteria overcome challenge on the ground of arbitrariness, and are not inconsistent with this earlier
GNSO policy decision. <o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>
