[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Agenda and documents for WG meeting on Wednesday 4 March

[Mary Wong]

Dear WG members,

We hope the short break from our WG following the face-to-face facilitated
meeting in Singapore last month has been refreshing and useful. Thank you
again to all who were able to attend that meeting, whether in person or
remotely, and for filling out the survey at the end!

Here is the proposed agenda for the WG call scheduled for Wednesday 4 March
at the usual time:
1. Roll call/updates to SOI
2. Update on research on sovereign immunity (WG Chairs/staff)
3. Discussion of differences between the UDRP and URS (All)
4. Next steps/next meeting
You will note that the agenda follows up on the 13 February face-to-face
discussions, such that pending receipt of input from international law
experts we will be continuing with the next step of our Work Plan, in agenda
item #3. For this discussion, please refer to the comparison chart first
prepared by Jim Bikoff for Sub-Group A, available on the WG wiki at:
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/49354393/URS-UDRP%20Compari
son%20Chart%20v2.doc?version=1&modificationDate=1417621822000&api=v2. The
actual UDRP and associated Rules can be found here:
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/udrp-2012-02-25-en?routing_type=path;
and the URS procedure and rules can be found, respectively, at:
http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/urs/procedure-01mar13-en.pdf and
http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/urs/rules-28jun13-en.pdf.

As a further follow up to our 13 February meeting, staff has updated the
draft paragraphs from the UDRP that the WG discussed several weeks ago
concerning possible language that could cover the issue of standing, with
reference to the legal protections for IGOs contained in Article 6ter of the
Paris Convention. We attach the relevant updated language here for your
review and subsequent WG discussion.

Thanks and cheers
Mary
