Dear all,

As suggested in previous emails, these are the first set of comments on the USG's trademark protection issues. May I please ask you to make any comments/additions on this document?

Thanks

KK

Hi guys,

Attached the statement addressing the trademark stuff. I suggest we leave this open for comments from our members as much as we can so they have time to review it. The GAC meeting is on February 28, 2011 so there is some time left - no reason to rush this as long as we have it ready 3-4 days before the Brussels meeting.

Thanks

KK

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the initial drafts and edits to this group statement.  I've made some additional suggested edits to the latest draft circulated (attached).

I think the draft still needs to have the trademark issues beefed up (Konstantinos?) and would benefit tremendously from Bill's copyediting skills.  I suspect the document will end up as a "NCUC comment", but we'll see....

Any other comments and suggested edits to the group statement?

What kind of time frame are we on for finalizing this comment?  I suppose we should have something final to present at least 1 week before the Brussels meeting.

Thanks,
Robin
