URGENT- names needed by end of this week. (apologies for the duplicate
postings)
For those of you who follow the White Paper, you would have noticed under
steps for the
transition, item 4 reads:
"ask WIPO to convene an open international process to develop a set of
recommendations for
trademarks issues"
WIPO is taking up this recommendation and is convening an international
process to develop
recommedations concerning intellectual property issues associated with
Internet domain
names, including dispute resolution. Recommendations resulting from the
WIPO Internet Domain
Name Process will be made available to the new organisation that is being
formed to manage
the Internet domain name system.
WIPO has engaged in consultations in order to constitute an internationally and sectorally
representative panel of experts to provide assistance for the WIPO Internet Domain Name
Process.
WIPO is requesting that the Asia PAcific region nominate two members to this panel. If you
have suggestions, please pass them to Eleazer, Executive Secretary of APIA, and she will
compile names on a plurality of nominations basis. We hope that two names will arise out of
this process.
Thank you for the participation. We will announce the names, before handing them in. This
information is needed ASAP, so please send the names in by this weekend. The only
prerequisites are 1) knowledgeable of Intellectual Property law, and/or 2) Knowledgeable of
Internet domain name issues ans most importantly, well respected by the region.
Thank you.
REgards,
Laina Raveendran Greene
