Robert, I'm currently involved in a project related to the Registrar Accreditation Agreement (which will be consuming all my available time until the project is complete). Perhaps Brett or Dennis from web405 can take the lead on this one... Best regards, Danny --- Robert Guerra <lists@privaterra.info> wrote:
Danny:
The Protection of the Rights of Others Working Group should not only address issues raised by the IP constituency, but also "user" related issues - such as the registration of individual names.
Definitely would support that at-large take this up. Would be good to have a comment drafted in response to the report on or by the San Juan meeting. Could you help draft a first version?
regards,

Finally... a DNS-related discussion has emerged on web405:
The issue concerns the registration of individual names. An example was cited of a teacher whose personal name was registered by another person with the intent to make her look bad. The initial proposal was that the proper name of a human being should be restricted in the DNS only to those people with that particular name.
Further discussions noted that the UDRP is not the proper vehicle for a resolution of this type of dispute (...and we all know that revisions to the UDRP have been warranted for some time).
This is a topic that the "Protection of the Rights of Others Working Group" didn't touch (as their sole focus appears to be on enhancing protections for commercial Intellectual Property interests).
In my view, this issue bears examination. If others agree, an Issues Report should be requested.
