Dear RPM PDP Working Group members, Please be so kind to note that the deadline for signing up for Sunrise and/or Trademark Claims sub teams is COB this Friday, 18 January; further request to join the sub teams after the closing date would not be accepted. Working Group members still have opportunity to provide input to sub teams’ work – per Co-Chairs’ proposed procedure, all sub team recommendations will be shared with the larger Working Group and a final decision on any proposal’s inclusion in the Initial Report for the purpose of soliciting public comment will be made by the entire Working Group. We appreciate the time from those who have volunteered to participate in the sub teams! Best Regards, Mary, Julie, Berry, Ariel From: GNSO-RPM-WG <gnso-rpm-wg-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of Julie Hedlund <julie.hedlund@icann.org> Date: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 at 5:56 PM To: "gnso-rpm-wg@icann.org" <gnso-rpm-wg@icann.org> Subject: [GNSO-RPM-WG] Call for Volunteers: Sunrise and TMCH Claims Sub Teams Dear RPM PDP Working Group members, As noted during today’s meeting, according to the attached timeline for the completion of Phase One of the PDP, the Working Group (WG) will shortly proceed to develop recommendations relating to the Trademark Clearing House (TMCH), Sunrise, and Claims RPMs. This email is a request for WG members to volunteer to join the Sunrise and Trademark Claims Sub Teams to assist with analyzing the results of the Sunrise and Trademark Claims surveys, and the previously collected data, with a view toward determining if and whether the data are helpful in answering the agreed questions based on refinements of the original charter questions for each of these RPMs (as in the attached two tables). In addition, as per the attached timeline the Sub Teams will assist in the review of individual proposals and in the development of preliminary recommendations. Please reply to this email on the list by Friday, 07 December and indicate which Sub Team(s) you would like to join. Note that to avoid running the Sub Team meetings at the same time, one Sub Team will meet on Wednesdays at 1300 UTC and the other at 1700 UTC, depending on member preferences. We may seek an alternate time if one can be found that doesn’t conflict with other GNSO meetings: ____ Join the Sunrise Sub Team ____ Join the Trademark Claims Sub Team Please also let us know if you have any questions. Thank you very much. Best, Mary, Ariel, Berry, and Julie
