Dear Working Group members, An action item from the Working Group meeting of 6 August was for staff to work with Rebecca and Paul Tattersfield to refine draft text for an agreed recommendation concerning the scope of marks to be accepted into the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH). The text was to include clarifications as to the continued availability of ancillary services for other signs (such as geographical indications) that would, however, not be eligible for the mandatory RPMs (Sunrise and Trademark Claims). With thanks to Rebecca and Paul for their redrafts and explanations, please find attached the proposed final text for this recommendation. Given the extensive discussion that this topic has gone through at the Working Group level, please review the draft language and post any questions or comments you may have to this mailing list by Monday, 21 September following which staff will incorporate the final text into the set of final recommendations for the formal consensus call. Kind regards, Mary, Ariel, and Julie
