Hi Osvaldo,
I think if anything is salvageable from this strawman proposal is the
notice period prior to the sunrise. It makes sense from multiple
perspectives and not only benefits one community. I agree that this
would mostly be implementation rather than policy, contrary to the
remainder of the demands, which are policy and contrary to prior to that
the community had agreed to as the maximum possible compromise prosition.
Best regards,
Volker

>> All,

>> A reminder that this item is on our agenda for discussion next week.
>> I believe that we need to respond to Fadi in as constructive,
>> well-considered and comprehensive a manner as possible.
>>
>> Therefore, please can you personally consider the letter, the issues
>> it raises and ensure that these are discussed with your respective
>> groups so that you are in a position to discuss the Council's response.
>>
>> Any contributions to the list in advance of December 20^th most welcome.
>>
>> Noting:
>>
>> "I am seeking policy guidance from the GNSO Council on two items as
>> part of the next steps for the implementation of the TMCH, namely,
>> _the Strawman Proposal and the IPC/BC proposal for limited defensive
>> registrations_"
>>
>> And
>>
>> "... a request from the New GTLD Program Committee's April resolution
>> where it requested "the GNSO to consider whether additional work on
>> defensive registrations at the second level should be
>> undertaken"(2012.04.10.NG2)"
>>
>> Thank-you.

>> Dear Jonathan,
>>
>> As reported in my recent blog on the Trademark Clearinghouse (see:
>> http://blog.icann.org/2012/11/a-follow-up-to-our-trademark-clearinghouse-meetings/),
>> the recent implementation TMCH related discussions led to the
>> development of a strawman model to address some of the proposed
>> improvements requested by the BC/IPC. I am very pleased with the
>> efforts shown by the participants in these discussions, as they
>> reflect a willingness to explore improvements to the TMCH and the
>> rights protection mechanisms available in new GTLDs.
>>
>> I am seeking policy guidance from the GNSO Council on two items as
>> part of the next steps for the implementation of the TMCH, namely,
>> the Strawman Proposal and the IPC/BC proposal for limited defensive
>> registrations. Each of these documents are posted for public
>> comment
>> (see:http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/tmch-strawman-30nov12-en.htm)
>> to allow the ICANN community the opportunity to comment on these
>> proposals. Specifically, policy guidance is sought on the portion
>> that pertains to the expansion of the scope of the trademark claims,
>> although comments on any aspect of the Strawman Model is welcome in
>> the event the Council is interested in broadening its response. The
>> specific proposal is that:
>>
>> /Where there are domain labels that have been found to be the subject
>> of previous abusive registrations (e.g., as a result of a UDRP or
>> court proceeding), a limited number (up to 50) of these may be added
>> to a Clearinghouse record (i.e., these names would be mapped to an
>> existing record for which the trademark has already been verified by
>> the Clearinghouse). Attempts to register these as domain names will
>> generate the Claims notices as well as the notices to the rights
>> holder. /
>>
>> //
>>
>> Not included in the Strawman Model is the IPC/BC proposal for a
>> limited preventative registrations. In general, there was not
>> support among non-IPC/BC participants for solutions to the issue of
>> second level defensive registrations among the participants in the
>> TMCH meetings. After hearing concerns regarding this issue, members
>> of the IPC/BC provided a description of a preventative mechanism, the
>> "Limited Preventative Registration," which has also been published
>> for public comment. As this issue is relevant to a request from
>> the New GTLD Program Committee's April resolution where it requested
>> "the GNSO to consider whether additional work on defensive
>> registrations at the second level should be
>> undertaken"(2012.04.10.NG2),//I am seeking GNSO Council feedback on
>> this IPC/BC proposal as well.
>>
>> It would be ideal if the GNSO Council could take up these issues at
>> its December meeting.
>>
>> Finally, addressing some of the criticisms on the process used by
>> Staff in convening these meetings, I hope that you can appreciate
>> that Staff is not circumventing the GNSO processes. The Strawman
>> Model and my blog posting always clarified that this request to the
>> GNSO Council was coming. One of my goals as CEO is to enhance
>> collaboration in the ICANN community as it tackles difficult
>> issues. I truly believe that the development of strawman proposals
>> on this and other issues can be a useful tool to inform policy and
>> implementation discussions. I hope that you will consider this
>> request in that light.
>>
>> We look forward to the Council's reply to this request.
