Dear All,

Please accept this gentle reminder of the briefing being held today with 
members of the Implementation Recommendation Team (IRT) to discuss the 
Final IRT Report in a teleconference today, Thursday, 4 June at 14:00 
UTC   The IRT members will review the five identified trademark 
protection issues, specifically the five priority proposals of:

-    IP Clearinghouse, Globally Protected Marks List and associated rights
protection mechanisms, and standardized pre-launch rights protection
mechanisms;
-     Uniform Rapid Suspension System ("URS");
-     Post delegation dispute resolution mechanisms at the top level;
-    Whois requirements for new TLDs; and
-    Use of algorithm in string confusion review during initial evaluation.

Participants will be able to engage in a discussion of the proposed
solutions to these issues as set out in the Final IRT Report.

Details of this Briefing Session, including agenda, presentation, Adobe
Connect link, and participation information are available here:

The call will be scheduled for 60 minutes.  Interpretation into FR and 
ES will be available on this call.   If you would like to request a 
dial-out, please inform At-Large staff at staff at atlarge.icann.org.

The Staff have picked the time and date from amongst those provided by 
the IRT representatives to ensure that the community had as much advance 
notice as possible, and because we know that there is considerable 
community interest in the outcome of the IRT and that community members 
will benefit from the briefing in drafting their comments.

Further information on the overarching IRT priority issues and the 
current draft IRT Report are available at:
