Thank you Mary. Clearly, profiting from the sale of second level domains is not and should not be a cause of action for any RPMs, Our concern is intentional TM infringement. Philip S.

We will fix it as soon as we can and resend the link to all community group chairs with a short explanatory note.

Question 7 currently states: “7. Has there been any conduct by new gTLD registry operators that you believe constitutes a “substantial pattern or practice of specific bad faith intent to profit” from the sale of domain names at the second level?” However, the PDDRP only applies where it constitutes a “substantial pattern or practice of specific bad faith intent to profit” from the sale of trademark infringing domain names at the second level. [The Underlined portion was left out]. The portion that was left out is KEY to the cause of action. As he jokingly put it, some believe that the sale of all second level domains constitute a bad faith intent to profit ☺ However, at this point the PDDRP does not apply in any situations other than selling trademark infringing domain names. Can we please fix and reissue the survey? Thanks. Jeffrey J.
