> (INGO?s) receiving protections under treaties and statutes under
> multiple jurisdictions.

> - Please identify the member(s) of your Stakeholder Group /
> Constituency who is (are) participating in this Working Group
>
> - Please identify the members of your Stakeholder Group /
> Constituency who participated in developing the perspective(s) set

>
> - Please describe the process by which your Stakeholder
> Group / Constituency arrived at the perspective(s) set forth below
>
>
>
> Below are elements of the approved charter that the WG has been
> tasked to address:
>
> As part of its deliberations on the first issue as to whether there
> is a need for special protections for IGO and INGO organizations at
> the top and second level in all gTLDs (existing and new), the PDP
> WG should, at a minimum, consider the following elements as
> detailed in the Final Issue Report:
>
>
>
> ? Quantifying the Entities whose names may be Considered
> for Special Protection
>
> ? Evaluating the Scope of Existing Protections under
> International Treaties/Laws for the IGO-INGO organizations concerned;
>
> ? Establishing Qualification Criteria for Special Protection
> of names of the IGO and INGO organizations concerned;
>
> ? Distinguishing any Substantive Differences between the
> RCRC and IOC designations from those of other IGO-INGO Organizations.
>
>
>
> Should the PDP WG reach consensus on a recommendation that there is
> a need for special protections at the top and second levels in all
> existing and new gTLDs for IGO and INGO organization identifiers,
> the PDP WG is expected to:
>
>
>
> ? Develop specific recommendations for appropriate special
> protections, if any, for the identifiers of any or all IGO and INGO
> organizations at the first and second levels.
>
> ? Determine the appropriate protections, if any, for RCRC
> and IOC names at the second level for the initial round of new
> gTLDs and make recommendations on the implementation of such
> protection.
>
> ? Determine whether the current special protections being
> provided to RCRC and IOC names at the top and second level of the
> initial round of new gTLDs should be made permanent for RCRC and
> IOC names in all gTLDs; if so, determine whether the existing
> protections are sufficient and comprehensive; if not, develop
> specific recommendations for appropriate special protections (if
> any) for these identifiers.
>
>
>
> Questions to Consider:
>
>
>
> 1. What kinds of entities should be considered for Special
> Protections at the top and second level in all gTLDs (existing and
> new)?
>
> Group View:
>
> 2. What facts or law are you aware of which might form an
> objective basis for Special Protections under International
> Treaties/Domestic Laws for IGOs, INGOs as they may relate to gTLDs
> and the DNS?
>
> Group View:
>
> 3. Do you have opinions about what criteria should be used for
> Special Protection of the IGO and INGO identifiers?
>
> Group View:
>
> 4. Do you think there are substantive differences between the
> RCRC/IOC and IGOs and INGOs?
>
> Group View:
>
> 5. Should appropriate Special Protections at the top and
> second level for the identifiers of IGOs and INGOs be made?
>
> Group View:
>
> 6. In addition, should Special Protections for the identifiers
> of IGOs and INGOs at the second level be in place for the initial
> round of new gTLDs?
>
> Group View:
>
> 7. Should the current Special Protections provided to the RCRC
> and IOC names at the top and second level of the initial round for
> new gTLDs be made permanent in all gTLDs and if not, what specific
> recommendations for appropriate Special Protections (if any) do you
> have?
>
> Group View:
>
> 8. Do you feel existing RPMs or proposed RPMs for the new gTLD
> program are adequate to offer protections to IGO and INGOs
> (understanding that UDRP and TMCH may not be eligible for all IGOs
> and INGOs)?
