I disagree. I have some problems with these comments/edits. It
seems to me that:<br>
<br>
1. Deleting segments of the joint statement by the co-chairs is
inappropriate. The chairs have every right to express their views,
as the subteam has every right to express theirs. <br>
<br>
2. Editing out Question #5 is inappropriate - how the ICANN staff,
board and community review and approve private RPMs is a very
important part of the transparency and accountability process of the
RPMs process.<br>
<br>
3. Question #9 comparing the ICANN Community's rejection of the GPML
(globally protected marks list) with the DPML privately sold to
trademarks owners (Domains Protected Marks List) is a very valid
inquiry that, of course, the WG subteam should review, consider and
debate. Handcuffing the subteam upfront seems inappropriate.<br>
<br>
4. Titles - what we call the Private RPM Protections should be
something for the WG to decide (they are certainly not voluntary for
registrants!)<br>
<br>
I favor the original chairs' draft.<br>

co-chairs agreement that the sub-group's charge is
limited to such information gathering. Otherwise, we
do have an issue for the full committee and I would
object to the sub-group starting work without

additional services provided by the TMCH and
registries – to comprehend the entire ecosystem

<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to remind folks
that our Phase 1 charter defines the RPMs for us
to review as the URS; the TMCH and as used in
Sunrise and Trademark Claims; and the PDDRP. We
are not chartered to evaluate Commercial Online
Protection Services; Non-Mandated RPMs; Registry
Specific RPMs; Voluntary Registry Protections;
Voluntary Registry Mechanisms; Voluntary
Registry RPMs; or even Private RPMs.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">With that said, I have long
agreed that information about additional
protections voluntarily offered by some
registries in the marketplace may be helpful to
the WG in evaluating the actual RPMs that we are
chartered to review. With that context in mind,
I offer the suggested changes to the proposed
draft questions in the attached. I deleted
certain references/questions about how/whether
ICANN approves such additional private
protections; whether they are consistent with
policy decisions; commentary on an RPM that
wasn't approved and how it may relate to some
additional protections currently offered. Some
of those questions and commentary are
superfluous and irrelevant to our task at hand
and would just lead us down a proverbial rabbit
hole. </p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What I hope we want from the

protections in the marketplace to help inform
our task of reviewing actual RPMs and not an
attempt at an extra-charter review of individual
registries services. I am supportive of the
former and happy to provide information as such,
but am definitely opposed to the latter. </p>
