Ed, any challenge from the call yesterday could be raised in this particular consultation?

No. We are largely still working on issues related to Post Delegation Dispute Resolution Procedures (PDDRP) in the RPM plenary.

I'm also on the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) subgroup, and although we have a call tomorrow afternoon we're focused now on trying to capture and / or create data sets to help the plenary when it turns to TMCH issues, which I believe is scheduled to happen next week.

In summary, nothing going on that should impact he TMCH consultation or public comment. Thanks for asking!

Kind Regards,

Thanks

Marilia

Thanks, Marilia.

Going through the report, it seems to be pretty objective.

I want to know an important supplementary fact: how much does the TMCH cost and who pays for it?

Subject: Public comment: Independent Review of TMCH Draft Report

Hello everyone,

There is a public comment open until September 3rd on the draft report of the independent review of the trademark clearinghouse services. This is a topic that touches upon a historical cause of NCSG: to ensure freedom of expression, bringing more balance and fairness to policies related to intellectual property protection in ICANN.

The Independent Review of the Trademark Clearinghouse report considers the effectiveness of key areas related to the TMCH in meeting its initial intended objectives. You can find more detailed information in: https://www.icann.org/public-comments/tmch-review-2016-07-25-en

Time is very short, but would anyone be willing to try to put together a short and to the point document outlining some key points on this matter?

Thanks and all the best,

Marilia
