Injecting any additional costs into an administrative system with all the inherent weaknesses is a bad idea, a very bad idea rather we should be concentrating on improving the administrative systems by making them more equitable and more efficient. There is little point trying to partially replicate more and more from judicial systems, if people want to see increased punitive measures to curb abusive behaviour then we should be concentrating on providing improved access to non administrative dispute resolution mechanisms.

Thank you for your thoughts George; I disagree, however, as these proposals refer to the mechanism of the URS. Should similar proposals be put forward for the UDRP I would not see any contradiction. Kind regards Marie

Hi folks,
I notice that 2 of the proposals scheduled for today's call (#15 and #22, additional penalties for repeat offenders + loser pays) were ones I identified on September 11, 2018 as being more appropriate for Phase 2 discussions, see:
https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-rpm-wg/2018-September/003315.html
and the ensuing thread. On our last call, Phil Corwin stated:
https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/transcript...
"And then those of you who saw on the list last week, George Kirikos raised a question regarding the distinction between Phase 1 and Phase 2 proposals and the chairs are going to put out a statement on that in the next day or two that can be discussed on the list before the next meeting. But we haven't had a chance to put that out yet but the few proposals that George identified that he thought would be more properly addressed in Phase 2 also were not called up, although I think the first one would have been Number 14, which would not have been reached today anyway. But we’re going to have a statement out on that in the next few days." (page 2)
However, no such statement has been put out by the co-chairs since that last call.
Since we only have 2 minutes to respond to each proposal during today's call, I'd like to reiterate my objection to having these proposals be presented at this time, unless it's agreed in advance that these same topics are going to be completely barred from consideration in relation to the UDRP.
It's clear to me that these same topics are intended to be raised again for the UDRP (indeed, the rationale for proposal #22 "loser pays" explicitly references the UDRP). They shouldn't get two bites at the apple, so to speak.
One of the main justifications for splitting the work into Phase 1 and Phase 2 was to avoid duplication, and having these proposals presented and considered now makes a mockery of that.
Should the proposals above be allowed to proceed to the presentation stage now, despite their relevance to the UDRP and Phase 2, then various counterbalancing proposals to protect registrants' rights and due process that I submitted and explicitly labelled as being more suitable for Phase 2 (since they apply to both the URS and UDRP) should be given equal time in Phase 1 presentations to be considered with and alongside the above proposals.
Sincerely,
George Kirikos 416-588-0269 http://www.leap.com/

Dear RPM PDP Working Group members,
On behalf of the Co-Chairs, please see the draft agenda below for the Working Group meeting on Wednesday, 26 September at 1200 UTC (NOTE ROTATING TIME) for 120 minutes.
Per Co-Chairs’ Proposed Procedure, for this next meeting, the Working Group will continue discussion of the Individual URS Proposals. According to the timeline published on the wiki and as described in the message below, the order of the presentation is as follows. WG members are requested to review the presentations prior to Wednesday’s meeting. Staff would like to provide you a heads-up that the order of presentations tomorrow would be slightly adjusted as follows:
Brian Winterfeldt’s team: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -10.pdf?api=v2 Brian Winterfeldt’s team: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -11.pdf?api=v2 George Kirikos: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -24.pdf?api=v2 Zak Muscovitch: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -25.pdf?api=v2 Brian Winterfeldt’s team: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -15.pdf?api=v2 Brian Winterfeldt’s team: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -16.pdf?api=v2 Brian Winterfeldt’s team: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/93126760/URS-Proposal -22.pdf?api=v2
Per the procedure, please also note the following time requirements for the presentations:
When a proposal is up for discussion, its proponent will be accorded a maximum of five (5) minutes to orally present the proposal, rationale, and supporting evidence. The floor will then be open to other Working Group members to comment on the proposal for a maximum of two (2) minutes each, with total discussion limited to twenty (20) minutes. However, if there is exceptionally high interest in a topic, the Co-Chairs would have discretion to increase the discussion time. At the end of twenty (20) minutes, or when there are no more commenters in queue, the proponent will have up to four (4) minutes to respond and/or propose a modification of the proposal based upon the discussion.
Depending on the actual progress during the Wednesday meeting, if a proposal cannot be presented due to time limitation, the presentation should be deferred to a future meeting.
Draft Agenda:
Review Agenda/Statements of Interest Updates Discussion of Individual URS Proposals (See: wiki) AOB
