George Kirikos:Hi folks.
Mary Wong:Hello George
George Kirikos:Hi Mary and Terry, the rhyming duo. :-)
George Kirikos:Hi Gerald.
Mary Wong:@George, if Berry (Cobb) comes on, you'd have a staff trio :)
George Kirikos:lol
jscottevans:Hello all. I am now on the line
Mary Wong:Hi J. Scott!
Mary Wong:J. "Harry Potter Bad Boy" Scott Evans
Mary Wong:NCPH Intersessional
Mary Wong:Apparently RPMs was on the agenda today
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):Hello All
Steve Levy:Hi folks
Theo Geurts:'lo
Terri Agnew:everyone can scroll themselves
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):Do I get it right that having "T[banana icon][onion
icon]H[bike icon]E" sign might have THE protected by TMCH, in case the same
person orders 3 small toys 3d printed with the same graphical sequence and
shipped to someone who paid (neighbour) via postal delivery? (so the proof
of use in in place)
Griffin Barnett:Agree Mary -- there appears to be coinfusiion here
regarding terminology. The TMCH guidelines uses teh term "device/image"
marks as opposed to "design" marks I believe
Griffin Barnett:Agree we should revert to them regarding their
processes/rules and use of this aspect of the TMCH
Vinzenz Heussler:This is what they say on the website:

Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):could we request examples of accepted/rejected
imaginary marks with description of what was wrong/right?
George Kirikos:So Disney would be able to register "CARS", for their
design mark (associated with the film)?

design marks were not to be take as text.

Martin Silva:4.1
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):I hope nobody registers NIC in TMCH :)
Mary Wong:Staff will follow up with Rebecca as well
Martin Silva:Are we addressing direclty that? becaus it is part of the
hard letter that is already there, is not a new debate.
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):so all nic.TLD to be protected from registries :)
George Kirikos:CARS is an easy one.
George Kirikos:(see link above)
Martin Silva:Delloitte is not following this 4.1

George Kirikos:Sure.
Mary Wong:@Martin, it's not necessarily as a design mark per se, it's
about how the TMCH accepts marks that have design elements
Martin Silva:exaclty, and doesn't 4.1 resolves that doubt?
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Agree with Susan.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:The question is about marks
received by the TMCH, not allowed by a RO
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):a Registry had a right to start from the very
begining to limit registrations to a region, for example .. not may so brave
Vinzenz Heussler:agree with Susan too
Martin Silva:But why have a diferent criteria?
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):*not many registreis were so brave to limit
registrations to a particular region
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:I think we probably should
have asked the question that resulted in this answer, but the answer here
doesn't answer the question asked.
Martin Silva:there is no relevant differnece in thos cases
Mathieu Weill:Yes, Mary, Massimo made that suggestion and I support that
Martin Silva:The GNSO Recommendations are absolutly valid for the TMCH
discussion
Mary Wong:@Mathieu, thank you
Mathieu Weill:There is a Comité Champagne
Jon Nevett:they do
Mathieu Weill:I think Massimo could provide that information
Mathieu Weill:There are bodies in some, not all cases
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:The only way you have the
right to submit champagne is if you can attest that you have a TM, right?
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:What is the list of people
that can make that attestation?
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):a company selling napkins of a colour of the
Champagne wine?
Marie Pattullo:There certainly are for Cognac, Champagne & some others -
not sure if all have one.
Mathieu Weill:@Kristine : it will depend on the jurisdiction...
Georges Nahitchevansky:Yes there are certifying bodies for various
designations and they would be the ones that would be able to pursue
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:the TMCH doesn't care about
jurisdiction really. For their purposes, they need a mark in some
jurisdiction.

Mathieu Weill:Yes, that's why the question is really interesting
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):I thought TMCH mostly care about the payment for the
services :)
Mary Wong:The question Deloitte was asked: "How many TMCH records include
a TM+50 list; and how many are on this list on average? How many
registrations were made for entries on the TM+50 list?"
George Kirikos:So, is that roughly 1% of the TMCH recordals? (375 out of
30,000 ??)
Paul Tattersfield:Are there any issues if two different companies submit
the same wordmark - Say Apple for Apple Inc. & Apple Music
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:for the record, I think the
information would be great if we can figure out how to get it.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Paul, what do you mean by
issues? the TMCH doesn't apply substantive criteria. both would be
allowed.
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):what happens when two companies registered same
THEMARK in TMCH and one of them registers it?
Paul Tattersfield:Can they both ocexist in the database without causing
issues?
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Yes
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:The registry can apply
additional criteria that may give one mark preference, but the TMCH is
agnostic
Paul Tattersfield:thanks Kristine
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:It's simply a db
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):so the first company recieves Claim notice, when
both actually have the same rights?
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:yep
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:They can disregard it.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Funny story, if you register
your mark in the TMCH and then you wait till GA to register your name, the
brand owner gets their OWN claims notice. :)
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):TMCH got some glitches, no excuses, horrible service
from IBM
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:agree J Scott
George Kirikos:#13 is not for Deloitte to say either.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Q 13, also not for TMCH
Griffin Barnett:Agree
susan payne:yes, agree
Paul Keating:Please read teh question #. I have a terrible connecdtion
sorry
George Kirikos:#14 now, Paul Keating.
Paul Keating:thank you J. Scott
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG:Language
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG:Developing countries have a lot to do localisation
of conetent - Especially in Language
Mary Wong:@Kristine, I will look
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):actually if you try to read Russian text of TMCH ...
your eyes will bleed
George Kirikos:+1 Kristine. Is this a question about statistics by country
of recordal?
susan payne:yes we did. i think it';s captured in the education section to
the extent they answered
George Kirikos:i.e. # of recordals for USA, Canada, vs. developing
countries....?
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:George, we were trying to
determine access
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG:+1 Kristine
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):I mean

George Kirikos:Right, Kristine....by knowing the stats, one can perhaps
infer the level of access? (i.e. if only 1% are from Africa, etc.)
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:recordals might tell part of
the story, but we want to know from which countries brand owners and their
counsel were participating.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Yes, George.
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):so they failed the simple task to just properly
translate a page
George Kirikos:They do translate their website into multiple languages,
which is a good first step for accessibility.
George Kirikos:There is a list of agents at:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.trademark-2Dclearing
house.com_agents
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.trademark-2Dclearin

bDVji8QCfgMrv4x4TZNPncyAZBgSyIbrlXWs7q60A&e= so one could figure it out.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:fortunately, we can probably
check that ourselves.....sounds like the Ru page is poorly translated.
Doesn't bode well for developing countries.
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):anyway, prices for TMCH might be quite high for
developing countries (different price of business e.t.c)
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Good job with the self-help,
George. I, for one, need to spend some time on the site. We want to ask
questions having done some research.
Paul Keating:J. Scott, Given your comment regarding the purpose, I found
that Deloitte's responses were not very helpful in that the responses were
general in nature whcih by their nature seem to preclude making any specific
suggestions. Perhaps I am mistaken but that is my view.
Paul Keating:Sorry but I have horrible connections (Ive tried all methods)
Paul Keating:so I may have missed something
Mary Wong:Deloitte also noted that outreach and education are not part of
the TMCH scope either.
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):do they care who pays ... I am not so sure
Terri Agnew:@Paul, if a dial out on the telephone is needed, please let me
know
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Vaibhav, that may also tell
part of the story. If people in developing countries used a TM agent, we'd
still be missing part of it.
susan payne:Vaibhav, the person who submits the mark into the TMCH is not
the mark owner, generally
susan payne:yes exactly J Scott
Mary Wong:@J Scott, exactly
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:I think there are pieces that
we can use to get what we need, but there won't be one definitive source.
Vinzenz Heussler:#15
Griffin Barnett:I think we skipped Q15?
George Kirikos:We're on #15.
George Kirikos:Although, it's not really for Deloitte.
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Right, no Q for Deloitte on
#15 or 16
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):if TMCH database is not private - then there is a
risk of another clearinghouse with lower prices:)
Terri Agnew:The call for the Review of all Rights Protection Mechanisms
(RPMs) in all gTLDs PDP Working Group is scheduled for Wednesday, 22
February 2017 at 04:00 UTC for 60 minutes.
George Kirikos:Tuesday night in North America.
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG::-)
Maxim Alzoba (FAITID):bye all
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG:Thanks JScott & Everyone. Allways a Pleasure
Griffin Barnett:Thanks all
Steve Levy:Thanks aall
Paul Tattersfield:thanks all bye
Vinzenz Heussler:bye to everyone
Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Or late for some. See you next
week.
Vaibhav Aggarwal, NCSG::-)
Marie Pattullo:Thanks!
George Kirikos:Bye folks.
susan payne:thanks
David McAuley (RySG):Thanks, bye all
