Dear All

Please find below the notes and actions arising from yesterday’s meeting of the RPMs Working Group. The meeting focused on continuing the review of the Charter questions and those questions which arose at ICANN56 in Helsinki.

TMCH

Question 5: To begin "Should" rather than "How should"; and possibly a "If so, how?" be added at the end

Question 10: Could be recast to also focus on small businesses/holders of limited numbers of mark holders. Consider that this may be a matter for the new gTLDs WG.

Additional questions:

Should the TMCH database be entirely public?

Is it practical to have more than one TMCH provider?  [ADD TO HELSINKI Q4]

ACTION: Co-Chairs to discuss and propose mechanism for WG to work on clarifying the questions and where necessary expand into sub-components. Initial proposal for a sub-team led by J Scott Evans to lead this activity and Paul Tattersfield volunteered to participate.

Kind regards,

David
