<p class="MsoNormal">You can’t just throw the word “politically” into the middle of an unsupported claim and expect to be persuasive (or even understood). I don’t see any reason or reasoning where would find “all geographic names” to be subject to any rules,
much less preventative rules. Quite the contrary. Can you explain your use of “politically” and what that implies? Where do you see politics coming into the ICANN policy-making process, and which politics are you referring to?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Curative procedures have been successfully invoked since the dawn of ICANN (and long, long before, in a multitude of settings) to allow someone to assert a claim against another party’s actions on the basis of agreed-upon standards. To
write off the entire concept as “unsuitable,” again without support, seems both extreme and premature. New curative procedures were created for the 2012 round, and we could adapt those or create something different if we wanted to. On a policy level, there’s
absolutely no reason for curative procedures to be “unsuitable.” Indeed, for reasons I very recently stated, they are far more suitable than preventative rights for the vast majority of terms with geographic meanings. Helping them work appropriately is an
implementation-level concern that should not impede good policy-making.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a group trying to reach consensus, we should not put all of our eggs into the one basket of preventative measures — no matter how much some participants want us to do so. I understand the allure of preventative processes over curative
processes — you don’t need to watch anything, you don’t need to initiate anything, you don’t need to prove anything, and you don’t even need to explain anything. It’s a completely one-sided approach — which is good for one-sided, slam-dunk situations. Conversely,
they are not particularly good where there are two sides to the story. Perhaps there is a concern that in a “curative” process over terms with geographic meanings, the “objectors” will not be able to succeed very often — that often there really is no basis
for a claim. If that is the case, it is even more critical that we identify and agree upon the bases for these claims — whether they are exercised preventatively or curatively. We can’t put (or keep) a preventative privilege in place without clear-cut reasons
that this privilege exists, and clear-cut reasons that the claim must be granted preventative status.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Preventative rights are equivalent to “guilty until proven innocent,” except that there’s no forum for such proof — it is entirely at the discretion of the privilege-holder. Curative rights, on the other hand, are “innocent until proven
guilty,” with a forum and a process for that determination to be made by an uninterested entity/person(s). I tend to prefer “innocent until proven guilty” as a general concept.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>I expect that we shall find that, politically, all geographical names will be subject to preventative rules, at least in the first instance.<o:p></o:p></p>

little about what are generally called "curative" processes (objections, dispute resolution processes, challenge processes, etc.). By doing so, we've taken half the tools out of the toolkit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I just finished working on the reconvened IGO-INGO Preventive Rights WG where we were dealing (at this point) with reserving/restricting national Red Cross/Red Crescent society names. In this
case, a preventive rights approach made sense -- the names of the various national societies are essentially unique, identified only with that one entity, third party uses are almost certainly done in bad faith and with bad intent, and there's no real underlying
policy disagreement. In some cases (e.g., name collisions, certain reserved names) there is also a strong technical component. This is how preventive rights have generally been used in ICANN policy -- for "slam-dunk" cases.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">There are few, if any, "slam-dunk" cases in our work. A good case can be made for 2-letter letter-letter combinations. Perhaps a good case can be made for some of the remaining classifications
in this first set or potential recommendations. However, as we move "down the list", so to speak, we get further away from "slam-dunk" situations. We could potentially make more headway on some of the classifications of names if we considered "curative"
processes, instead of being so intensely focused on "preventive" rights. This tends to turn our discussions into "all or nothing" choices -- but this is a false menu, since there are other options aside from the binary "all/nothing" that should be on the
menu.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p>I disagree with the method proposed. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>1. It is premature to start consensus calls on certain restricted topics when other more critical topics have not yet been discussed.<br>

2. Nothing is agreed until everything is agreed.<br>
