March 11, 2010

Steve, Well done expounding the headline BC position on the EoI in the Public & Board forum. Quick and succinct and it sounded much more logical than most of the waffle we have been listening to. Chairman even commented. Thank you for some very good points Chris Chaplow Managing Director Andalucía.com S.L. Avenida del Carmen 9 Ed.

When there is a position of the BC, we will assign a speaker to convey the BC position, if that is suitable to the agenda. However, there are many topics on the Forum agenda either where the BC does not have a position, or where members have different views. In some cases, we don't have positions, but will have questions to ask. In some cases, we have pre existing positions. but in many cases, some topics will lead to members wanting to speak in their individual capacity to ask questions. I'd just like to gather a list of where you want to speak. We'll do a bit of sorting tomorrow a.m. and also identify any other topics. I HAVE INVITED PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS AND OUR NEWEST MEMBER, JON NEVETT TO JOIN US. THIS IS AN OPTIONAL GATHERING, BUT I HOPE YOU WILL COME ALONG. MARILYN CADEBC CHAIR

BC members Martin Sutton and Berry Cobb on a workshop panel NOW in TSAVO
by Steve DelBianco March 10, 2010

March 10, 2010

If you¹re available here in Nairobi, please come to Tsavo now, where 2 of our BC members are on a panel on Registration Abuse If you're available to connect remotely, see http://nbo.icann.org/node/8878 BC Members Martin Sutton and Berry Cobb are up there with ICANN staffer Marika. The WG Chair Greg Arron (Afilias) is going thru his slides now same slides we saw this morning in GNSO Council. See http://nbo.icann.org/meetings/nairobi2010/presentation-rap-wg-aaron-10mar10- en.pdf ) Berry and Martin were WG members, and suggested this morning that Greg worked to avoid Consensus for considering any abuse that occurs with website domains. When Greg¹s done, we have a golden opportunity to lob softball questions and supporting comments to Berry and Martin. Slide 24 is particularly relevant: > No Consensus on Cybersquatting: NewTLD Rights Protection Mechanisms > > Supported by 7 members of the RAPWG:) > The RAPWG recommends the initiation of a Policy Development Process by > requesting an Issues Report to investigate the appropriateness and > effectiveness of how any Rights Protection Mechanisms that are developed > elsewhere in the community (e.g. the New gTLD program) can be applied to the > problem of cybersquatting in the current gTLD space. > > (6 members of the RAPWG:) > The initiation of such a process is premature; the effectiveness and > consequences of the Rights Protection Mechanisms proposed for the new TLDs is > unknown. Discussion of RPMs should continue via the New TLD program. > Experience with them should be gained before considering their appropriate > relation (if any) to the existing TLD space. -- Steve DelBianco Executive Director NetChoice http://www.NetChoice.org and http://blog.netchoice.org +1.202.420.7482
