Without getting into the TMCH/Sunrise purposes, for the SubTeam/WG's consideration, attached is an email including a proposal from a year-and-a-half ago seeking to address this. Brian -----Original Message----- From: Gnso-rpm-sunrise <gnso-rpm-sunrise-bounces@icann.org> On Behalf Of George Kirikos Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2019 9:43 PM To: gnso-rpm-sunrise@icann.org Subject: [Gnso-rpm-sunrise] Followup on hotel/hotels sunrise 'gaming' example Hi folks, During today's sub team call, I was asked to explain why I felt the "hotel" sunrise registrations were gamed. I couldn't find, in real-time, the link to the prior discussion (I was on a different computer, and it appears that the message hadn't been indexed by Google!), but I found it now (by searching my email archives) at: http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-wg/2017-March/001119.html under point #6, from March 2017. Due to GDPR, much of the old WHOIS from 2017 is now redacted, But, a search of the "VAUM GMBH" registrant took me to: https://undeveloped.com/domain-seller/vaum-gmbh-17b35615-99cb-4773-ba53-097c... which shows dozens of hotel.TLD and hotels.tld domains all currently listed for sale. That doesn't appear consistent with the purpose of the TMCH and sunrise period. Sincerely, George Kirikos 416-588-0269 http://www.leap.com/ _______________________________________________ Gnso-rpm-sunrise mailing list Gnso-rpm-sunrise@icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gnso-rpm-sunrise World Intellectual Property Organization Disclaimer: This electronic message may contain privileged, confidential and copyright protected information.
