[gnso-rpm-wg] Agenda and documents for Working Group call this week

Sat Apr 29 12:06:02 UTC 2017

Take a look at the About section of the TMCH. This is what they write. http://www.trademark-clearinghouse.com/content/what-trademark-clearinghouse

And I disagree that the TMCH has to do with carefully selected trademarks. That's not correct either.

And the word nothing more is also incorrect.

I have to agree with Paul K. here.  The TMCH is not a rights protection mechanism.  It is a database containing carefully selected trademark records as lodged by their owners.  Nothing more.

Best,
Paul

Prk comment.

Not to pester a point but when we were arguing to make the TMCH public Or as an alternative to allow this WG to access certain parts of it we were told the opposite.

Sincerely,
Paul Keating, Esq.
