<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">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.<o:p></o:p></p>

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
