Good afternoon: May I suggest that CPWG on Geo-names later today also take note of this development. We have known for some time that this was ‘in the works’, and it has now finally come to light. Regards CW

Colleagues
Good morning; as noted on the CCWG IG Call yesterday, WIPO is discussing, inter-alia, a proposal cconcerning the Protection of Country Names and Geographical Names of National Significance in the DNS.
The link for the meeting is at https://www.wipo.int/meetings/en/details.jsp?meeting_id=50450 <https://www.wipo.int/meetings/en/details.jsp?meeting_id=50450> while the agenda for the meeting is at https://www.wipo.int/edocs/mdocs/sct/en/sct_42/sct_42_1_prov.pdf <https://www.wipo.int/edocs/mdocs/sct/en/sct_42/sct_42_1_prov.pdf>.
The relevant document to be discussed (SCT/41/6) is at https://www.wipo.int/edocs/mdocs/sct/en/sct_41/sct_41_6.pdf <https://www.wipo.int/edocs/mdocs/sct/en/sct_41/sct_41_6.pdf> though it is likely an updated draft will be discussed in November.
Best
Nigel
