[Discussion Thread] Sunrise Q10
by Ariel Liang May 17, 2019

May 17, 2019

Dear Sunrise Sub Team members, As announced, this thread is being opened for final mailing list discussions related to Sunrise Agreed Charter Question 10. Unless the Sub Team Co-Chairs determine otherwise, this discussion thread will remain open until 23:59 UTC on 29 May 2019. Comments/input provided past the closing date or outside this discussion thread will not be taken into account when compiling the final Sub Team member input. Summary Table (Pages 40-42) The draft answers, preliminary recommendations, and links to the relevant individual proposals are in the latest Summary Table (as of 16 April 2019): https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/102138618/%5BSunrise%20Sum…. Agreed Sunrise Charter Question 10 Q10 is a request for action, not a question, specifically: “Explore use and the types of proof required by the TMCH when purchasing domains in the sunrise period.” In the Sub Team Co-Chairs’ view, the words at the end, “in the sunrise period,” offer an important consideration here. We ask that you review the Summary Table (as of 16 April 2019) and provide any input you may have on “use” and type of proof and issues you have observed as they pertain to Sunrise.

by Julie Hedlund May 9, 2019

May 9, 2019

Dear All, Please see below the action items and notes captured by staff from the RPM Sunrise Sub Team meeting held on 08 May 2019 (18:00-19:30 UTC). Staff will post them to the wiki space. Please note that these are high-level notes and are not meant as a substitute for the recording, chat room, or transcript. The recording, AC chat, transcript and attendance records are posted on the wiki at: https://community.icann.org/display/RARPMRIAGPWG/2019-05-08+Sub+Team+for+Su…. Best Regards, Julie Julie Hedlund, Policy Director == NOTES & ACTION ITEMS Action Items: 1. Sub Team members will review discussion threads on: * Q1 (including Proposal #9): https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-sunrise/2019-April/000278.html * Q3 (including Proposals #10 & #11): https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-sunrise/2019-April/000270.html * Q4: https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-sunrise/2019-April/000271.html * Q5(a): https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-sunrise/2019-April/000279.html * Q6: http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-sunrise/2019-May/000286.html 2. Question #8: Staff will revise the summary table. Distinguish among the three elements: LRP, ALP, QLP to make sure they are not conflated. 3. Staff will update the summary table based on the transcript/recording from the meeting. Brief Notes: 1. Updates to Statements of Interest (SOIs): No updates provided. 2. Development of Preliminary Recommendations: a. Discuss agreed Sunrise Charter Question 8 -- There were some limited comments in the data, but don’t think they relate to the LRP. Some issues around launch programs generally. -- Limited uptake of ALP. -- People need to be clear what they are talking about. Make sure this is clear in the discussion thread. -- The responses said that some registries noted issues with the improved launch program, which is completely different. -- Staff will revise the summary table by reviewing the source material. b. Discuss agreed Sunrise Charter Question 9, in conjunction with Proposal #13 -- Support for keeping the current rules. -- Let mark holders decide where to register the mark in Sunrise. -- Anecdote suggest problems -- scenarios where people gamed the system. -- Solution penalizes the vast majority of genuine brand owners. -- Don’t develop a system that goes further than it should. -- Not every TLD is category-specific. Proposal #13, Michael Karanicolas: -- Where a top level domain is suggestive of a category of service, then the TM holder would have to prove use in that category of service. -- The proposal doesn’t go far enough. -- Could look at how SDRP could address the problem or some variant.
