[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] - Final SG/C Letter and Questions to Consider

[Steve Chan]

Dear WG Members,

Attached, please find the final version of the letter drafted to solicit
input from the stakeholder groups and constituencies; this letter was sent
to the chairs of each of the SG/Cs yesterday.

In addition, it was agreed on today¹s call that at least for the moment, the
group would not break up into sub groups and would instead work together
over the list to debate the following item from the group¹s work plan:
"Develop potential considerations (e.g. qualifying requirements,
authentication criteria and appeal processes) for IGOs and INGOs that would
be relevant to their use of dispute resolution proceedings (existing or
new)²

The WG may want to consider the following questions when thinking about this
item:
* What might be a justifiable, principled basis for ³standing² other than TM
rights, whether under the UDRP, URS or a new dispute resolution procedure?
* 
* Assuming for the moment that sovereign immunity is a problem for IGOs
(pending responses from the GAC and the IGOs), what type of appeal process
other than what is now in the UDRP and URS might be a solution that would
still offer adequate protection to registrants?
Best,
Steve
