Wouldn't single letter marks generate a lot of notices especially an 'a' or 'e' ?<u></u><u></u></p>

Would it be possible to just send a notfication email to the mark holder so they could remain informed of new registrations and be able to montior the new domains and thereby avoid the chilling effect of lots of TMCH notices to gwnuine registrants?

Questions 7 and 8 remain unanswered. These are important threshold questions that the proponent should complete prior to submission. Otherwise the work group is bogged down considering or perhaps even assisting in the development of basic rationale for the
proposal. This should be undertaken by the proponent.<u></u><u></u></p>

Thus, here we have a proposal to significantly expand the scope of notification. It would, for example, trigger a notice for Apple Computers if I wanted to register Pineapple. xyz or a trademark holder for “THE” if I wanted to register Theater.club or for
