If such a requirement were to be incorporated, it would have to 1) solve (to some degree) the existing problem of Sunrise gaming, 2) not be so strict as to eliminate Sunrise registrations altogether, 3) not be utterly operational inefficient (i.e., it can’t require something like a declaratory UDRP judgment to resolve).<o:p></o:p></a></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'>This said, I don’t think we should take the potential UDRP requirement off the table yet, but I think we should be clear that requiring a guaranteed UDRP win in all contexts would eliminate all non-fantastical marks from the Sunrise (and even some fantastical marks that have competing trademarks in different jurisdictions).
