Report of the Sunrise Registrations Sub Team
by Amr Elsadr June 21, 2017

June 21, 2017

Dear Sub Team Members, Attached is the proposed report of the Sunrise Registrations Sub Team in .doc and .pdf formats. Please take some time to go through them. Staff will be sending them to the Working Group mailing list in a few hours in preparation for tomorrow’s Working Group meeting (21 June at 17:00 UTC). While going through the report, you should notice the following: * A cover note has been added to briefly outline what the Sub Team did in the course of its work. * The definitions of “reserved names”, “premium names” and “premium pricing” have been added to that note. * The data requirements column has been removed, and the data requirements identified have been moved to the bottom of the document. Each data set identified is referenced with the numbers of both the original Charter questions as well as those of the refined questions. The refined questions are also included for context. Please note that the Sub Team report is not a final work product. Working Group members will be reviewing and commenting on the report both during tomorrow’s Working Group call, as well as during the Working Group face-to-face meeting in Johannesburg. Sub Team members are also encouraged to continue discussing the Charter questions, the refined versions of these questions as well as possible data requirements with the rest of the Working Group. Thanks. Amr

Definitions of Reserved Names, Premium Names and Premium Pricing
by Lori Schulman June 16, 2017

June 16, 2017

I am taking stab at definitions so we can have a jumping off point. I would like to have these nailed down by the time of our call on Friday. Reserved names: second level domain names that are withheld from registration per written agreement between the registry and ICANN. Premium names: second level domain names that are offered for registration that, in the determination of the registry, are more desirable for the purchaser” Premium pricing, “second level domain names that are offered for registration, that in the determination of the registry are more desirable for the purchaser and will command a price that is higher than a nonpremium name. Premium prices may vary depending on what the registry perceives as having greater value to the domain purchaser. This may include: length of string; whether the string is an acronym, dictionary term or trademark with established good will.” Lori Please send you Lori S.

Re: [Gnso-rpm-sunrise] [Ext] Re: Action Items from the Sunrise Registrations Sub Team Call - 9 June 2017
by Amr Elsadr June 15, 2017

June 15, 2017

Hello Maxim, Thank you very much for this information, particularly on the TLD Startup Information. You had previously mentioned the TLD Startup Page in the google doc, but following the link you provided below has been helpful in understanding how this might prove useful in terms of acquiring data relevant to LRPs and QLPs for different TLDs. I will do some more digging into this, and get back to you, and the rest of the Sub Team (or possibly the broader Working Group). Regarding question 16, it might also be helpful to take a closer look at how proof-of-use is established to make TMCH registrants eligible for Sunrise, and compare to the scenarios you’ve described. And your comment regarding the absence of a process to revoke a Sunrise registration, even if the eligibility for Sunrise has been disputed and proven false was captured in the call notes. Thanks again, Maxim. Very much appreciate the follow up. Amr From: Maxim Alzoba <m.alzoba(a)gmail.com> Date: Wednesday, June 14, 2017 at 12:27 PM To: Amr Elsadr <amr.elsadr(a)icann.org> Cc: "gnso-rpm-sunrise(a)icann.org" <gnso-rpm-sunrise(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ext] Re: [Gnso-rpm-sunrise] Action Items from the Sunrise Registrations Sub Team Call - 9 June 2017 Hello Amr, I 'm sorry for causing confusion - I had two notes , one about Q16, and the other about Q11. I meant (for Q16) that there are no way to establish in advance if the "single item proof of use" is just an intent of gaming Sunrise registration without any other business with the current TM (TM registered, tokens 3D printed - sent to a neighbour with payment vial Paypal, domain registered, and TM - left on the wind to expire or cancelled). And there is no way to distinguish such attempt from the situation with the new project on (for example) Kickstarter or some other similar crowdfunding site, where a single item manufactured and sent to someone as a test item in exchange for some small coin, (TM registered, due to expectations of future business, Registered in TMCH with that item sent as a proof of use), and nobody knowns if it is going to be a success or not, but still it is a legitimate use of TMCH + Sunrise registration in my opinion (business idea, formal paperwork to protect it, formal processes to get the domain name, expectations of future business and investments). Also I underlined that according to the current set of Policies/RA/RAA 2013 there is no way to revoke the domain on grounds that the TM is not in TMCH anymore, or TM expired or cancelled. ==== My other note was about Q11: and the way to establish number of registrations during LRPs (the single and only .Madrid ALP has no registrations at the moment , so it is Zero for ALPs) To establish number of LRPs per TLD (then repeat for other TLDs): 1. go to TLD Startup information portal, where all ROs are obliged to upload their information about Launch Plans including all periods https://newgtlds.icann.org/en/program-status/sunrise-claims-periods[newgtld…<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__newgtlds.icann.org_en_…> 2. search for a particular TLD 3. you will see in Other Periods items as: Qualified Launch Program ( QLP) Limited Registration Period ( period limited to some subset of potential registrants ) Exclusive Registration Period (TMCH Sunrise - description will have " start-date" or "end-date" for different kinds of ) and open/close dates since the database is a property of ICANN - ICANN staff could request making data selection to get windows of registration and kins of registrations then it should be processed versus registrations at those dates (it can be found in data escrow and to some extent in RO's reports to ICANN - those are monthly)) so when the time window of a particular period were found - all registrations of that TLD, which are not 9998 or 9999 (RO itself) are made according to that Period rules (LRP, or Sunrise) the same page has Open and Close dates for Trademark Claims (so it could be used to understand, how many registrations where made during the Claims period vs. other registrations in a particular TLD). 4. if you want all data of all TLDs in one - the same page has Export Data button - which gives you XLS file with all current TLDs (those who are already submitted Launch plans, and it means other are not active). P.s: Please be aware that terminated TLDs are there too (like doosan ), and to distinguish them - https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/gtld-registry-agreement-termination-2…<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…> Sincerely Yours, Maxim Alzoba Special projects manager, International Relations Department, FAITID m. +7 916 6761580(+whatsapp) skype oldfrogger Current UTC offset: +3.00 (.Moscow) On Jun 13, 2017, at 02:09, Amr Elsadr <amr.elsadr(a)icann.org<mailto:amr.elsadr@icann.org>> wrote: Dear Sunrise Registrations Sub Team Members, Below are the action items from the Sub Team Call on 9 June.

by Amr Elsadr June 9, 2017

June 9, 2017

Dear Sub Team Members, Just a quick reminder that there is an outstanding action item for suggested definitions of “Reserved Names”, “Premium Names” and “Premium Sunrise Pricing”. This action item is from the 12 May Sub Team call. On today’s Sub Team call, it was suggested that a small group of volunteers work on a first draft of these definitions. If you are interested in joining a small group to do this, please make yourself known. Alternatively, if Sub Team members have suggestions for definitions, please do share them on the mailing list. Thanks, and have a good weekend. Amr

Kind regards, Julie Adobe Connect chat transcript for 09 June 2017: Julie Bisland:Welcome to the Review of all Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) Sub Team for Sunrise Registrations on Friday, 09 June 2017 at 14:00 UTC. Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):good. I had to find the l highest place in the village to get good connection :) pedestrian bridge on a railway station Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):Hello all Julie Bisland:hello Maxim! Welcome! Jeff Neuman:I am only on for 30 mins Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):I think I am for 40-45 mins Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):the chart is way better Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):then the previous form we have used Amr Elsadr:Also note that any recommendatins made by this Sub Team are also subject to agreement by the full Working Group. Mary Wong:@Lori, from the staff perspective, having a separate Column 2 and Column 3 makes sense Mary Wong:Because it allows the WG to track what happened to each original Charter question J. Scott:leave as is. Since so many hands have been on this keeping it as is becomes important. Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):is it reasonable to call it description ? we develop initial questions and describe ouout thinking Kathy:Lori: when you say to collapse columns 2 and 3, could you kindly give headings? Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):instead of footnotes Kathy:It's a little confusing which column is which. Kathy:What does yellow mean? and blue? Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):we need the text in the end about meaning of colours and numbers in each Mary Wong:@Maxim, yes - if the Sub Team wants to keep the color coding we will include a key that explains each color. Amr Elsadr:@Kathy: The colors don't have significant meaning themselves. Questions that were initially batched together were highlighted in the same colors. Philip Corwin:Apologies for late arrival. I am awaiting operator. Kathy:@Amr, tx! May want to put that into a code or key at the bottom of the pages... Mary Wong:@Kathy, as noted above, that is what we plan to do if the colors remain. Kathy:Great! Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):yes Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):please clear my hand status (it stuck) Jeremy Malcolm:could not hear any of that, is anyone else having audio trouble? Mary Wong:Thanks, Lori. Mary Wong:@Jeremy, I don't believe so. Lori Schulman:No audio trouble on my end. Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):it is new hand Kathy:"Abuse of use" Lori Schulman:ok, Maxim Kathy:great Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):it is both . so an we coulcould underline that we are interested only in sunrise aspaspect here Mary Wong:The Sub Team can recommend to the WG that it will be necesary for the WG to tackle the broader question. Kathy:good question Lori Schulman:Is there a way to challenge use? Lori Schulman:Is there a way for a challenging to see the proof of use? Mary Wong:@Lori, all - it's not specifically called out, but the TMCH's Dispute Resolution Policies allow a third party to challenge records accepted into the TMCH. Mary Wong:Specific registry Sunrise Dispute Resolution Policies may also have addiitional provisions about this. Mary Wong:OK - both TMCH dispute resolution policy and each registry-specific policy. Lori Schulman:So we should ask whether policies currently have language about access to proof of use documents Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):it does not work when TM lost after the end of a particular sunrise Lori Schulman:Suggestion: sampling of policies from individual registries Maxim Alzoba (FAITID ):excuse me. need to drop the call. my train Lori Schulman:thank for your contributions Maxim Kathy:Should we link #16 and SDRP questions below? Kathy:will review... Mary Wong:@Lori, I believe the TMCH was supposed to be set up to accept different langauges and scripts Kathy:perfect! Kathy:agree Lori Schulman:For questions 17-22 substitute Sunrise for RPM and note to reorder them to be the first questions asked. Mary Wong:@Lori, that's what happens when suggestions are copied wholesale without editing Kathy:I'm sorry Maxim had to leave. Lori Schulman:Are there certain registries that should not have a mandatory sunrise? Lori Schulman:for question 22 Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:^based on their published registration/eligibility policies Kathy:let's keep some examples too - it helps those who are approaching this anew. Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:(to be clear), not just because the tld is a dictionary word that has a dictionary meaning. Amr Elsadr:May I capture an action item for Sub Team members to review the reworded question 22, and suggest further improvements? Lori Schulman:right: Are there certain registries that should not have a mandatory sunrise based on their published registration/eligibility policies Mary Wong:Hello Klaus!! Amr Elsadr:Apologies. Was dropped off the call. Julie Bisland:Verizon op is called Amr Kathy:+1 Amr Elsadr:Back on now. Kristine Dorrain - Amazon Registry Services:Qualified favor.. Kathy:Tx you, Lori!!! Philip Corwin:Amen to that. Let's put this bed before Johannesburg Amr Elsadr:Will do, Lori. Thanks. Amr Elsadr:As discussed yesterday, it'd be helpful to plan as far ahead as ICANN 61 - need to have preliminary recommendations on phase 1 to solicit input on them from the borader community at that meeting next year. Jeremy Malcolm:no thanks Amr Elsadr:Thanks all. Bye.
