Hi, I'm not sure if I will be able to make the call, but I would appreciate if we could dig a little deeper into Q1 under examiners, specifically to look into what (if any) proportion of the Examiners have experience representing the registrant side, or if they tend to mostly have a background representing trademark holders. With regard to Q2 under examiners, I would suggest the following change: 2. What if any training *or guidance* do you provide for the selected Examiners? Thanks!

Michael: There was some extended discussion of this on the Providers call today – “ specifically to look into what (if any) proportion of the Examiners have experience representing the registrant side, or if they tend to mostly have a background representing trademark holders” – we couldn’t reach agreement on relevance or specific language, so it’s been reserved for further discussion when we review the draft questions at the full WG level. Your suggestion to insert “or guidance” into question 2 was accepted and it has been updated accordingly. Best, Philip Philip S.

Hi all, Thanks for the update. I have to say - I find this result a bit surprising. Having participated in every previous call, I can't think of any other cases where a question from a subgroup member was handled this way. We have 17 pages of questions - probably at least a hundred in total - less than five of which came from me. The approach taken thus far has seemed very inclusive to adding queries where there was some support. That's why my comments recommending the addition were so brief - I didn't expect to have to dig in and justify the question to this degree, since I haven't seen others challenged in this way for a question which seems to me (and to others, evidently) to be obviously related to our work. That said - I am of course happy to engage further on this. Having listened to the call now - there seems to have been two objections raised which made this "controversial". First, it was stated that having represented trademark owners (or defended against trademark claims) does not necessarily mean an examiner is biased, nor should it disqualify a person from being an examiner. This I fully agree with, of course, and I would not suggest otherwise. But beyond questions over a particular examiner's neutrality, it's relevant to consider whether the system as a whole has the appearance of bias. A judge having formerly been a prosecutor is fine. But if every judge in the country was a former prosecutor, it would surely give rise to concerns <https://www.vox.com/2016/3/28/11306422/supreme-court-prosecutors-career>. This is why I'm asking - not to try and disqualify any individual - but to assess potential biases which may be baked into the system as a whole. This is highly relevant to our task at hand. Second, it was raised that the question might be "unanswerable". First - I'll note that there were several questions which we included which may be challenging to respond to, or where data may be unavailable. Previously, I recall we dealt with these by saying we could submit them, and if the providers didn't have responsive data they could indicate as such (that's why we see questions starting with "are you aware of", "do you have knowledge of" etc.). That said, Phil raised a good point that many lawyers will work both sides, and someone else mentioned that domain owners also owned trademarks and vice versa... Looking back, I think I was a bit unclear in my original phrasing, so instead let me propose as follows: *1. Would you say that a substantial majority of your examiners have professional experience that mainly draws from representing trademark holders seeking to enforce their rights, or mainly draws from domain registrants seeking to defend against trademark claims, or would you say that your examiners include a mix of both, or that most have a history of representing both sides in these disputes?* With this revised drafting, and given that I'm apparently not the only one who sees that this question is relevant and valid, I would request that the question be included alongside the others, rather than reserved for further discussion.

Thanks for your email, Michael, and for the revised language of your question. As you’ve listened to the call recording you know that it got about ten minutes of discussion and when it became clear that agreement was elusive I made the decision to defer it for full WG discussion so the sub-team could get on with reviewing the redrafts of other Provider questions. I hope you can join our April 18th call and present your views then. Very best, Philip Philip S.

That said - I am of course happy to engage further on this. Having listened to the call now - there seems to have been two objections raised which made this "controversial". First, it was stated that having represented trademark owners (or defended against trademark claims) does not necessarily mean an examiner is biased, nor should it disqualify a person from being an examiner. This I fully agree with, of course, and I would not suggest otherwise. But beyond questions over a particular examiner's neutrality, it's relevant to consider whether the system as a whole has the appearance of bias. A judge having formerly been a prosecutor is fine. But if every judge in the country was a former prosecutor, it would surely give rise to concerns<https://www.vox.com/2016/3/28/11306422/supreme-court-prosecutors-career>. This is why I'm asking - not to try and disqualify any individual - but to assess potential biases which may be baked into the system as a whole. This is highly relevant to our task at hand. Second, it was raised that the question might be "unanswerable". First - I'll note that there were several questions which we included which may be challenging to respond to, or where data may be unavailable. Previously, I recall we dealt with these by saying we could submit them, and if the providers didn't have responsive data they could indicate as such (that's why we see questions starting with "are you aware of", "do you have knowledge of" etc.). That said, Phil raised a good point that many lawyers will work both sides, and someone else mentioned that domain owners also owned trademarks and vice versa... Looking back, I think I was a bit unclear in my original phrasing, so instead let me propose as follows: 1. Would you say that a substantial majority of your examiners have professional experience that mainly draws from representing trademark holders seeking to enforce their rights, or mainly draws from domain registrants seeking to defend against trademark claims, or would you say that your examiners include a mix of both, or that most have a history of representing both sides in these disputes? With this revised drafting, and given that I'm apparently not the only one who sees that this question is relevant and valid, I would request that the question be included alongside the others, rather than reserved for further discussion.

With regard to Q2 under examiners, I would suggest the following change: 2. What if any training or guidance do you provide for the selected Examiners? Thanks!

Dear All, Thank you very much, Phil, for providing the edits to the proposed questions! Thanks to Justine as well for sending the suggested edits and comments! Since today’s call is audio only, to facilitate the discussions and finalization of the questions, may staff suggest that we review the proposed questions and edits via this Google Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IdBPxXskvX6a1MbZcLFA8bBvg5fji8iuSIt4EnTl... All Phil and Justine’s work has been incorporated in this Google Doc (staff also noted Michael’s comments and suggested edits, and can incorporate them if Michael is not on the call, as Phil mentioned). All Sub Team members have the ability to comment and suggest edits directly to this Google Doc. In this way, we could keep all edits in one place, instead of separate word files. In addition, in staff’s view, a few of the proposed questions have already been answered by the Providers (including during their ICANN61 session or through the Supplemental Rules) or in the staff research requested by the Sub Team. Staff has highlighted this question numbers in green on the Google Doc, as well as their corresponding references in this google spreadsheet<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I-qe_I4OkQT7IU_rjHMQVa9Ebj8Ik6vay1vr...>. These already answered questions are: * Communications: Q2 * Administrative Review: Q2 * The Response: Q13, Q18 * Examiner: Q1, Q2, Q4, Q11, Q16 * Language: Q3 * Determinations and Publication: Q1-3 * Abusive Complaints Q1-6 * Appeal: Q1, Q4 * Others: Q7-9 Hope the suggestion to review questions via the Google Doc is acceptable to Phil and the Sub Team.
