Dear WG Members, I'll include a personal comment that our work here has been hampered by the lack of participation from the IGOs, on whose behalf this WG was formed. Despite all the work, time and effort that this WG has devoted over many years, we do not know whether any of the proposed options would actually address the root concerns of the IGOs. Indeed even if we adopted option 3, which would lead the WG down a long, tortured path to try to develop an arbitration system, if the IGOs maintain their resistance to participating, we would still be left not knowing whether the final recommendations would be deemed acceptable by the IGOs. It seems better to refer the core issues of jurisdiction and legal process to the RPM WG which enjoys more robust representation from a variety of stakeholders and will need to address these same issues as part of its work. I support Option 4, and would also support continued exploration of Options 1, 2, 5, or 6, if one of those options attracted consensus support of the WG.

Having been asked by several people for my reasoning behind my votes, I thought I would simply post it openly. Option 1: Yes. This is a simple solution that returns the process to a balance. It leaves the IGO with the complete freedom of choice (just as it had in filing the UDRP). The consequence (voiding the UDRP) is a simple and easily understood consequence of seeking the benefit of immunity AND does not bog us down in discussions as to whether immunity existed or whether it had already been waived by the IGO via the UDRP filing. Option 2: NO. Although a nice attempt to seek compromise, I found it too confusing and feared it would lead to us becoming bogged down in discussion over details. Option 3: NO. I am most opposed to the idea of this WG attempting to create any form of alternative dispute system. This is more appropriately addressed by a wider and more fully functioning WG such as that addressing the RPM. Option 4: YES. I am fully in favor of suggesting that the other WG handle this matter. They are a larger group with more professionals on board. They are also experienced in tackling complex issues. I know this because I am a member of both this and the RPM WG. Option 5: NO. Issues of ³in rem² and declaratory relief are inherently common law principles and are not shared by many jurisdictions, including those based upon civil law (that which looks only to statutes and not to prior judicial decisions as the reference point). This would require too much discussion by this WG to achieve true consensus as to what is or is not involved in turning this option into the more robust descriptions necessary. Also, I have had no difficulty in dealing with post-UDRP claims based upon this distinction (suing a party or suing a thing). I also am unsure if a US in rem action would be permitted to continue in the absence of an IGO that successfully asserted sovereign immunity. So, overall, too complex for this WG given its directive. Option 6: NO. I STRONGLY favor any form of mediation and have previously provided my thoughts and concerns over the Nominet program. I ENCOURAGE Brian and anyone else (at either WIPO or NAF) to initiate such a program. Initiating such a program would not require any modification to to the UDRP as it could be entirely voluntary. HOWEVER, to the extent that this Option 6 would require discussion and consensus surrounding the rules underlying an obligatory mediation program, such is beyond the scope of this WG and not likely to have a successful outcome, particularly given what has been transpiring in this WG to date. So, there you have my thoughts. I ENCOURAGE all WG members to respond to George¹s email regardless of your views. Sincerely, Paul Raynor Keating, Esq.

Option 1: Yes. This is a simple solution that returns the process to a balance. It leaves the IGO with the complete freedom of choice (just as it had in filing the UDRP). The consequence (voiding the UDRP) is a simple and easily understood consequence of seeking the benefit of immunity AND does not bog us down in discussions as to whether immunity existed or whether it had already been waived by the IGO via the UDRP filing. Option 2: NO. Although a nice attempt to seek compromise, I found it too confusing and feared it would lead to us becoming bogged down in discussion over details. Option 3: NO. I am most opposed to the idea of this WG attempting to create any form of alternative dispute system. This is more appropriately addressed by a wider and more fully functioning WG such as that addressing the RPM. Option 4: YES. I am fully in favor of suggesting that the other WG handle this matter. They are a larger group with more professionals on board. They are also experienced in tackling complex issues. I know this because I am a member of both this and the RPM WG. Option 5: NO. Issues of ³in rem² and declaratory relief are inherently common law principles and are not shared by many jurisdictions, including those based upon civil law (that which looks only to statutes and not to prior judicial decisions as the reference point). This would require too much discussion by this WG to achieve true consensus as to what is or is not involved in turning this option into the more robust descriptions necessary. Also, I have had no difficulty in dealing with post-UDRP claims based upon this distinction (suing a party or suing a thing). I also am unsure if a US in rem action would be permitted to continue in the absence of an IGO that successfully asserted sovereign immunity. So, overall, too complex for this WG given its directive. Option 6: NO. I STRONGLY favor any form of mediation and have previously provided my thoughts and concerns over the Nominet program.

Having been asked by several people for my reasoning behind my votes, I thought I would simply post it openly.
Option 1: Yes.
This is a simple solution that returns the process to a balance. It leaves the IGO with the complete freedom of choice (just as it had in filing the UDRP). The consequence (voiding the UDRP) is a simple and easily understood consequence of seeking the benefit of immunity AND does not bog us down in discussions as to whether immunity existed or whether it had already been waived by the IGO via the UDRP filing.
Option 2: NO.
Although a nice attempt to seek compromise, I found it too confusing and feared it would lead to us becoming bogged down in discussion over details.
Option 3: NO.
I am most opposed to the idea of this WG attempting to create any form of alternative dispute system. This is more appropriately addressed by a wider and more fully functioning WG such as that addressing the RPM.
Option 4: YES.
I am fully in favor of suggesting that the other WG handle this matter. They are a larger group with more professionals on board. They are also experienced in tackling complex issues. I know this because I am a member of both this and the RPM WG.
Option 5: NO.
Issues of ³in rem² and declaratory relief are inherently common law principles and are not shared by many jurisdictions, including those based upon civil law (that which looks only to statutes and not to prior judicial decisions as the reference point). This would require too much discussion by this WG to achieve true consensus as to what is or is not involved in turning this option into the more robust descriptions necessary. Also, I have had no difficulty in dealing with post-UDRP claims based upon this distinction (suing a party or suing a thing). I also am unsure if a US in rem action would be permitted to continue in the absence of an IGO that successfully asserted sovereign immunity. So, overall, too complex for this WG given its directive.
Option 6: NO.
I STRONGLY favor any form of mediation and have previously provided my thoughts and concerns over the Nominet program. I ENCOURAGE Brian and anyone else (at either WIPO or NAF) to initiate such a program. Initiating such a program would not require any modification to to the UDRP as it could be entirely voluntary. HOWEVER, to the extent that this Option 6 would require discussion and consensus surrounding the rules underlying an obligatory mediation program, such is beyond the scope of this WG and not likely to have a successful outcome, particularly given what has been transpiring in this WG to date.
So, there you have my thoughts.
I ENCOURAGE all WG members to respond to George¹s email regardless of your views.

Paul Raynor Keating, Esq.

While I nominally remain co-chair of this WG, control over it has essentially been assumed by the Chair of the GNSO Council via the Council Liaison, as the WG's authority is solely derived from Council. I find it both ironic and sad that the WG was brought to a halt by Mr. Kirikos months ago because the co-chairs proposed to poll the full WG membership to initiate the consensus call process, and that he persisted in that appeal even after the co-chairs modified that proposal to assure that the poll would be conducted in a fully transparent matter -- yet now he has elected to conduct his own poll. Mr. Kirikos has no authority under the GNSO WG Guidelines to conduct such a poll and its results have no official status. I must also note that option 4 -- referral of any decisions on the IGO CRP matter to the RPM Review WG -- is fundamentally incompatible with any of the other options, which would make policy decisions now within the IGO CRP WG. Yet several members are supporting both option 4 and others. Whether that RPM WG will address IGO immunity issues specifically, or sovereign immunity issues more generally, and whether addressing that subject requires a Charter change, will be determined by its membership at the appropriate time. The Recommended Next Steps contained in the "SUMMARY REPORT FROM THE GNSO COUNCIL LIAISON ON THE CURRENT STATUS OF CONSULTATIONS WITH THE IGO-INGO CURATIVE RIGHTS PDP WORKING GROUP (12 April 2018)" continue to be those that govern this WG as it comes to a conclusion. I know that some members of this WG may wish to engage me in debate or dialogue regarding the above statement, but I shall have nothing further to say in advance of Thursday's call. Philip S.

-----Original Message----- From: Gnso-igo-ingo-crp [mailto:gnso-igo-ingo-crp-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Paul Keating Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2018 8:18 AM To: Paul Keating <Paul@law.es>; George Kirikos <icann@leap.com>; gnso-igo-ingo-. <gnso-igo-ingo-crp@icann.org> Subject: Re: [Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Public Display of Possible Consensus Importance: High
Having been asked by several people for my reasoning behind my votes, I thought I would simply post it openly.
Option 1: Yes.
This is a simple solution that returns the process to a balance. It leaves the IGO with the complete freedom of choice (just as it had in filing the UDRP). The consequence (voiding the UDRP) is a simple and easily understood consequence of seeking the benefit of immunity AND does not bog us down in discussions as to whether immunity existed or whether it had already been waived by the IGO via the UDRP filing.
Option 2: NO.
Although a nice attempt to seek compromise, I found it too confusing and feared it would lead to us becoming bogged down in discussion over details.
Option 3: NO.
I am most opposed to the idea of this WG attempting to create any form of alternative dispute system. This is more appropriately addressed by a wider and more fully functioning WG such as that addressing the RPM.
Option 4: YES.
I am fully in favor of suggesting that the other WG handle this matter. They are a larger group with more professionals on board. They are also experienced in tackling complex issues. I know this because I am a member of both this and the RPM WG.
Option 5: NO.
Issues of ³in rem² and declaratory relief are inherently common law principles and are not shared by many jurisdictions, including those based upon civil law (that which looks only to statutes and not to prior judicial decisions as the reference point). This would require too much discussion by this WG to achieve true consensus as to what is or is not involved in turning this option into the more robust descriptions necessary. Also, I have had no difficulty in dealing with post-UDRP claims based upon this distinction (suing a party or suing a thing). I also am unsure if a US in rem action would be permitted to continue in the absence of an IGO that successfully asserted sovereign immunity. So, overall, too complex for this WG given its directive.
Option 6: NO.
I STRONGLY favor any form of mediation and have previously provided my thoughts and concerns over the Nominet program. I ENCOURAGE Brian and anyone else (at either WIPO or NAF) to initiate such a program. Initiating such a program would not require any modification to to the UDRP as it could be entirely voluntary. HOWEVER, to the extent that this Option 6 would require discussion and consensus surrounding the rules underlying an obligatory mediation program, such is beyond the scope of this WG and not likely to have a successful outcome, particularly given what has been transpiring in this WG to date.
So, there you have my thoughts.
I ENCOURAGE all WG members to respond to George¹s email regardless of your views.
Sincerely,
Paul Raynor Keating, Esq.

Hi folks,
Since there's been no response to the call for the true numbers to be posted:
https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-igo-ingo-crp/2018-May/001140.html
let's attempt to do this transparently. I believe we might already have a consensus.
The 6 options (not mutually exclusive!) were at:
https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-igo-ingo-crp/2018-March/001093.htm l
Briefly:
Option 1: set aside the UDRP/URS decision, to put both sides back in the same position
Option 2: use Option 1 for existing domain names, and Option 3 for newly created domains
Option 3: arbitration
Option 4: refer it to the RPM PDP
Option 5: lock the domains in the event of an "in rem" lawsuit (not just "in personam")
Option 6: mediation as a step, and then back to Option 1 if need be
If you'd like to post your position/thoughts in an open and transparent manner, please do so in this thread, using the following template
----------------------------------
Name: Option 1: Option 2: Option 3: Option 4: Option 5: Option 6:
----------------------------------
For myself:
Option 1: yes, I support this (ultimately my first choice)
Option 2: yes, I can support this as a compromise
Option 3: no, I can't support this
Option 4: yes, I can support this; Paul Keating's prior suggestion of having Option 1 be the interim solution if Option 4 is
Option 5: yes, I support this, and it works in parallel to all other options
Option 6: yes, I support mediation
