Request for input from the ALAC into the IRT's work on trademark issues with the introduction of new gTLDs
Building on the energy and enthusiasm that I trust those of you who were involved in the Mexico Meeting and At-Large Users Summit, still have I want, as Chair of the ALAC, to bring to the attention of At-Large and particularly the leadership of the RALO's and ALS's am matter arising from the Mexico ICANN meeting regarding tho formation and work of the IRT and indeed both the ALAC's and At-Larges input into its activities... Firstly I have included in the body of this message a copy in full, of a formal request from the President of the GNSO's Intellectual Property Constituency, Mr. Steve Metalitz, requesting ALAC specific input into this process in a very short time frame (we will add this to the Agenda for our March 24th ALAC Meeting) and pointing out the opportunity for individual (here I encourage also ALSes and RALO's to also respond directly) submissions to be provided directly to *ip-issues@icann.org*<ip-issues@icann.org> . Secondly two suitably qualified ALAC Members (in their individual capacity) have offered themselves to the IRT as Members these are Mr. Beau Brendler, and Ms. Vanda Scartezini, I would like at the ALAC Meeting to endorse these two IRT Members as formal representatives of the ALAC to this WG, and encourage discussion in the ALAC Working List regarding this matter prior to our discussion of this as an Agenda item at te March meeting as well... Related to this however is my desire to involve suitably qualified and experienced representatives from At-Large and the ALSes into an Ad Hoc ALAC WG (to operate as a subset of the existing new gTLD WG already established to give support and ensure that a balanced regional view on this important topic is provided (to include for example the matters of Traditional Rights that I heard discussed in the new gTLDs WG at the Summit meeting... I know we have plenty of talent ( all be it time poor talent) in this area of expertise so I want to encourage any one who can contribute over the next few days / weeks on this topic to join the Wiki Work space we will set up for the purpose, by sending your name and details to staff@atlarge.icann.orgas soon as possible this will help spread the workload AND ensure a good opportunity for input from "the edges" ... To this end I encourage the RALO leadership in each Region to actively, source, approach and encourage people you know of to step up and assist. I will ask staff to also send out an Announce email once the WIKI Work space is set up... CLO <email message from IPC> Dear Cheryl: During its March 6 meeting in Mexico City, the ICANN Board of Directors passed a resolution calling for the creation of an implementation recommendation team to "develop and propose solutions to the overarching issues of trademark protection in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs." That resolution directs the implementation recommendation team to "solicit input from the interested constituencies." (The full text of the resolution is accessible at* http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm*<http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm> .) The Board requested the GNSO's Intellectual Property Constituency (IPC) to convene an implementation recommendation team (IRT). Although the IPC is still developing the time line for the IRT's work and the criteria for membership on the IRT, the IPC wishes to begin soliciting input from the constituencies. Accordingly, we write to request that input from the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC). In particular, we seek the ALAC's proposals for solutions (new or existing) to trademark protection issues that have been identified in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs, concerns about such solutions, and any other pertinent information your ALAC believes the IRT should have as it begins its work. We encourage you to be as specific as possible. With regard to solutions, it is particularly important that solutions be scalable and fair. Finally, with the exception of identifying support for and/or identifying concerns with specific measures, it is not necessary to submit proposals about solutions that were set forth in public comments on the first draft of the Draft Applicant Guidebook; an IPC team is already hard at work identifying them. Those proposals can be seen by reviewing the public comments sections at <* http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources*<http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources>>, and many of them are in short form in section IX of the comment analysis at <* http://icann.x.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/agv1-analysis-public-comments-1... *<http://icann.x.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/agv1-analysis-public-comments-1...>
.
Given the timetable set forth in the Board's resolution, we request your input not later than March 25, 2009. If it is not possible under the internal processes of ALAC to develop and approve any formal submission in the requested time frame, individual submissions from ALAC members are permitted. Your ALAC comments will have significant impact on the quality of the proposal and the speed that it will adopted, so please carefully consider your input, make it as complete as possible and try to respect the objectives of trying to protect consumers from harm while creating a fair and scalable solution. Please direct all submissions to *ip-issues@icann.org* <ip-issues@icann.org> . Thank you! Steve Metalitz, IPC president -- Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO)

I'm a little confused by this. Beau brought up this issue at today's NARALO conference call and said that the IRT was looking for public participants. Is this need satisfied by the appointment of Beau and Vanda? Is your call only for members of an ALAC subcommittee or is the IRT looking for other participants? (I say this because I committed to help find more participants in the NARALO call; I'd just like clarity on the nature of the potential recruitment. Beau had mentioned that the committee was looking for a pretty heavy time committment amongst its members. - Evan

Clearly people ( especially volunteers!) can "only do what they can do" and this highlights in my opinion a systemic issue of public participation and an equity balance on input and opportunity in the ICANN world between those who have a derived benefit or remuneration/contracting support in their activities and those of us who Do Not! something we as ALAC need to address and work on in this next quarter in a number of ways but the IRT is a good example of why it is important to do so... I truly believe that it s the quality not the quantity of what you do in these things that really counts and my personal aim of wrapping a good WG as a support mechanism for this activity (*as well as to assist in getting the view 'from the edges' into any ALAC outcomes*) is to help you do just that... I assume that there will be no minimum participation criteria for th IRT as such and really the group will have to be satisfied with what ever you (and I would like to assume after our next meeting *our ALAC* reps into this can bring to the table... we learnt from the experience of supporting Alan as our rep in the GNSO restructuring of the User House activity that the considered voice of a group delivered in a timely manner by our rep can be a very powerful tool indeed and this is a model (and post Summit this is MORE important as it is one that can bring in the views from 'the edges') that we need to expand and build on... let's use this as a test case then... Also as part of leading by example I have asked staff to ensure that in the design of the Workspace for the ad hoc ALAC WG on this issue we have up front a list of members/participants in a grid that allows each of us to post our declaration of interest / background materials for public view transparency and continuous disclosure is something we should strongly "walk and talk" on this issue as well as many others... (in my case I just insert my ICANN Wiki page as that is where I keep things up to date) I've also asked that this space run under and use the existing new gTLD WG space as there is not just cross over but it needs to be treated as a proper subset activity I would also like to link the great work on new gTLD's done by the Summit WG on this topic as we need to integrate that great work into our next steps processes and build on the energy and success that the summit developed... That said I still like the North / South representation that you two both bring to the IRT as (hopefully endorsed) ALAC reps and we are getting a rather nice line up of supporters for your work in the WG I've proposed...

Apparently there is some discussion going on about what exactly the time commitment is supposed to be.
Last I heard, it was a fairly firm commitment of 15 business days and possibly a couple of face-to-face meetings.
If this is the case, I can't commit right now to give three weeks of work days to ICANN for this process, especially since there are not a great deal of details about what exactly it entails. I'm already at max for ICANN volunteer work. That's why I suggested at the NA RALO call that perhaps someone like Seth Reiss, who is an intellectual property attorney, would like to stand in for me.
Am happy to contribute an essay or white paper on the consumer confusion issue to the group if it's germane, but my organization is not going to give me three weeks off to discuss intellectual property and new gTLDs.
I apologize for committing before I truly realized what the demands would be.

to
our discussion of this as an Agenda item at te March meeting as well...
I'm a little confused by this.
<CLO>Evan as far as I knew the deadline to propose members of the IRT was Friday, 13th March, and by the PDT time allocated I knew only of the names of Beau and Vanda being out forward... The IRT *is* looking fore Public Comment as outlined in the letter I got from Steve where he asked for specific ALAC input... If there is updated or different information circulating then I am not privy to that...
Beau brought up this issue at today's NARALO conference call and said that the IRT was looking for public participants. Is this need satisfied by the appointment of Beau and Vanda? Is your call only for members of an ALAC subcommittee or is the IRT looking for other participants?
<CLO> My call was specific to getting participation into an ALAC WG and that is deliberately set at a lower level of participation than what I understand the IRT per se is asking for... Hopefully we can get at least 2-3 people from each Region able to commit enough time to support Beau and Vanda as ALAC endorsed Reps to the IRT (I hope) as well as assist in formulating the basis for Regional and ALAC comments on the matter...
(I say this because I committed to help find more participants in the NARALO call; I'd just like clarity on the nature of the potential recruitment. Beau had mentioned that the committee was looking for a pretty heavy time committment amongst its members.
- Evan
<CLO> I hope you and each of the leaders in the RALO's can do the same either for the Ad-Hoc ALAC WG I am proposing OR on the IRT per se if my information is incorrect... I hope this helps perhaps Staff can confirm whether my assumptions on this have been correct or not...

Dear Cheryl:
During its March 6 meeting in Mexico City, the ICANN Board of Directors passed a resolution calling for the creation of an implementation recommendation team to "develop and propose solutions to the overarching issues of trademark protection in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs." That resolution directs the implementation recommendation team to "solicit input from the interested constituencies." (The full text of the resolution is accessible at* http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm*<; http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm> .)
The Board requested the GNSO's Intellectual Property Constituency (IPC) to convene an implementation recommendation team (IRT). Although the IPC is still developing the time line for the IRT's work and the criteria for membership on the IRT, the IPC wishes to begin soliciting input from the constituencies. Accordingly, we write to request that input from the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC).
In particular, we seek the ALAC's proposals for solutions (new or existing) to trademark protection issues that have been identified in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs, concerns about such solutions, and any other pertinent information your ALAC believes the IRT should have as it begins its work. We encourage you to be as specific as possible. With regard to solutions, it is particularly important that solutions be scalable and fair. Finally, with the exception of identifying support for and/or identifying concerns with specific measures, it is not necessary to submit proposals about solutions that were set forth in public comments on the first draft of the Draft Applicant Guidebook; an IPC team is already hard at work identifying them. Those proposals can be seen by reviewing the public comments sections at <* http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources*<; http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources>>, and many of them are in short form in section IX of the comment analysis at <*

.
Given the timetable set forth in the Board's resolution, we request your input not later than March 25, 2009. If it is not possible under the internal processes of ALAC to develop and approve any formal submission in the requested time frame, individual submissions from ALAC members are permitted. Your ALAC comments will have significant impact on the quality of the proposal and the speed that it will adopted, so please carefully consider your input, make it as complete as possible and try to respect the objectives of trying to protect consumers from harm while creating a fair and scalable solution.
Please direct all submissions to *ip-issues@icann.org* < ip-issues@icann.org> .

I note Brett Fausett offered himself on the NARALO list but I'm unsure if he put himself into the IRT per se ( I think he did) or not Heidi can you cross check this but if he can link to the WG space regardless that would be great...

Dear Cheryl:
During its March 6 meeting in Mexico City, the ICANN Board of Directors passed a resolution calling for the creation of an implementation recommendation team to "develop and propose solutions to the overarching issues of trademark protection in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs." That resolution directs the implementation recommendation team to "solicit input from the interested constituencies." (The full text of the resolution is accessible at*
http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm*<http://www.icann.or g/en/minutes/resolutions-06mar09.htm>
.)
The Board requested the GNSO's Intellectual Property Constituency (IPC) to convene an implementation recommendation team (IRT). Although the IPC is still developing the time line for the IRT's work and the criteria for membership on the IRT, the IPC wishes to begin soliciting input from the constituencies. Accordingly, we write to request that input from the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC).
In particular, we seek the ALAC's proposals for solutions (new or existing) to trademark protection issues that have been identified in connection with the introduction of new gTLDs, concerns about such solutions, and any other pertinent information your ALAC believes the IRT should have as it begins its work. We encourage you to be as specific as possible. With regard to solutions, it is particularly important that solutions be scalable and fair. Finally, with the exception of identifying support for and/or identifying concerns with specific measures, it is not necessary to submit proposals about solutions that were set forth in public comments on the first draft of the Draft Applicant Guidebook; an IPC team is already hard at work identifying them. Those proposals can be seen by reviewing the public comments sections at <*
http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources*<http://w ww.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/comments-en.htm#resources>>,
and many of them are in short form in section IX of the comment analysis at <*
http://icann.x.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/agv1-analysis-public-comments-1 8feb09-en.pdf
*<http://icann.x.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/agv1-analysis-public-comments -18feb09-en.pdf>
.
Given the timetable set forth in the Board's resolution, we request your input not later than March 25, 2009. If it is not possible under the internal processes of ALAC to develop and approve any formal submission in the requested time frame, individual submissions from ALAC members are permitted. Your ALAC comments will have significant impact on the quality of the proposal and the speed that it will adopted, so please carefully consider your input, make it as complete as possible and try to respect the objectives of trying to protect consumers from harm while creating a fair and scalable solution.
Please direct all submissions to *ip-issues@icann.org* <ip-issues@icann.org> .
Thank you!
Steve Metalitz, IPC president
