Dear all,

If no one has any objection I can participate in the PDDRP discussion. I have read the document on the PDDRP and have contributed to the comments we drafted and posted during the recent public comment period. I am back in the office officially on Tuesday morning and I have limited Internet access until then. If there are any particular issues that you would like me to raise, please do let me know. I will confirm right now with ICANN on my participation.

KK

Can any member(s) intending to participate let the list know, or (if you prefer) offline to me? I would have liked to participate but unfortunately will be teaching at the time.

In light of NCUC work on trademarks and new gTLDs, it'd be good to get an update after the fact.

Cheers
Mary

ICANN invites community participation in an open consultation on the Process for New gTLD Registry Agreement Amendments and the Trademark Post-Delegation Dispute Resolution Process.

This meeting is open to all interested participants and observers.
