[gnso-rpm-wg] FOR REVIEW/DISCUSSION - NEW co-chairs' statement on additional RPMs, and UPDATED table of TMCH Charter questions

[Mary Wong]

Dear all,

In advance of the Working Group call this week, and pending circulation of the finalized agenda, please find attached the following documents for your review and further discussions:

(1) A draft statement from our Working Group co-chairs regarding the provision of additional rights protection mechanisms by the TMCH and registry operators (i.e. in addition to the minimum mandatory RPMs prescribed by ICANN and which form the basis of our current Policy Development Process); and

(2) A table of all the TMCH-related Charter questions, as refined and suggested by the Sub Team and including notes and questions from several Working Group members as of 4 December. This document essentially replicates the Proposed Edited Questions that were circulated in the form of the more comprehensive table that was discussed by the Sub Team, but hopefully aids your deliberations as it sets out all the proposed questions in one spot.

Thanks and cheers
Mary

    I think the 2nd formulation of Question #15 is better, as it's more
    open-ended, yet also asks for specifics on how concerns can be
    addressed.
    
    As an aside, the "Original Question" of #15 suggested "of course with
    a central database" --- there's no technical reason why a central
    database would be required. There could instead be multiple
    independent databases, which registrars and/or registries could query
    in parallel via a standardized API. There'd only need to be a central
    *list* of which TMCH providers needed to be queried. From a coding
    perspective, the registrar/registry could simply query the entire list
    of providers, and collate the results.
    
    Most registrars already have this technology/capability, as they often
    query multiple registries (and secondary marketplaces) in parallel
    when customers attempt a new domain name registration (e.g. customer
    searches for EXAMPLE.COM, but they'll query not only the
    Verisign-operated .com registry, but also .net/org/biz/info/us and
    hundreds of other TLDs, marketplaces like Sedo/Afternic, and they'll
    even generate and query variations of "EXAMPLE.TLD" for availability,
    presenting the customer with a list of hundreds of alternatives).
    
    Sincerely,
    
    George Kirikos
