SV: [wg-c] Deadlines

["Petter Rindforth" <petter.rindforth@enderborg.se>]

Javier and all others, I fully agree that we have to set a new deadline although I am not sure that September 7th is enough. We will more likely need until September 30.

I am convinced that we will be able to present a report by the end of September if only we could be a little more organized in our discussions and stop jumping from subject to subject, spending a lot of time with personal comments on single participants in this working group. We are here together, trying to solve some tricky problems and to deliver a serious report/recommendation. Right?

Being an IP/IT Lawyer, a trademark owner and a domain name holder, I wish to point out that we, the accused "TM people" are not against the addition of new gTLDs as such, what we say is: Be careful, go slow and make sure that before creating any new problems there is a speedy and effective dispute resolution process, a system for protecting famous and well-known trademarks across all gTLDs and an easy and cost-effective system for obtaining full contact information. The addition of new gTLDs must be made in a very controlled manner, and that's why it has to be just a few to begin with.
