I guess I would have to ask, "is this really the point"?
I am a Trademark
Holder and paten holder, yet I do NOT agree with the intent
or verbiage
of the WIPO report, not to mention it overstepped its mandate in the
White Paper. Many companies that I have personally talked to
their
management agree with me on this as well, yet WIPO is espousing
differently. So, William's point is well taken, in that the Trademark
community
is NOT unified behind WIPO, and therefore has not more "STAKE"
than
anyone or any company/organization, and it shouldn't, neither should
any Trademark owner. And THIS IS the point!

The trademark/business community is *much*,
**much** stronger than ORSC, yet ORSC has
been able to block (or at least slow down)
many of the plans that we haven't agreed
with.Don't you think they can as well?
