Hi all, Further to our previous discussions, please see revised language for proposal #7, with the aim of addressing concerns associated with an open and searchable model, and in particular the need to mitigate the potential for misuse of information in the database: *ICANN should develop a limited system for reviewing TMCH records, accessible to a limited subset of certified applicants, such as intellectual property enforcement authorities, academic or civil society researchers, auditors, and other parties with a legitimate research interest in accessing information to affirm the functioning and scope of the TMCH. This includes searching for registrations which have subsequently deemed to be inadmissible to the TMCH database (i.e. geographic indicators), improper registrations, and general auditing of the functioning of the TMCH and the database used for sunrise and trademark claims notices. Access may be predicated on the fulfillment of particular requirements and safeguards to ensure that the information gathered is not used in a way which facilitates cybersquatting or other breaches of intellectual property rights, such as a written commitment to only use the information for permissible purposes.* Best, Michael
