ICANN Opens Public Comment Period on Czech Arbitration Court Proposed Pilot 
Projects
22 July 2008
ICANN has received a request from the Czech Arbitration Court (CAC) to run two 
pilot projects related to its implementation of UDRP.
Background to Posting
CAC was approved as a UDRP provider at the Board meeting on 23 January 2008.
CAC wishes to run tests of the following two UDRP-related services as part of 
its implementation of UDRP:
A. Simplified way of sending signed hardcopies of Complaints and/or Responses 
to the Provider (Par. 3(b), Par. 5(b)) of the UDRP Rules.
This pilot project aims at exploring and testing the legal and practical 
implications of a service that would enable parties to submit hardcopies of the 
complaints/responses in a simplified way.
B. Service of delivery of signed hard copies.
This pilot project seeks to explore and test the legal and practical 
implications of a new service related to e-UDRP consisting of the printing and 
delivering of signed electronic documents.
ICANN has at the request of CAC agreed to post for public comment the 
description of the pilot 
projects<http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=9826720&msgid=162739&act=9MXL&c=165637&admin=0&destination=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.icann.org%2Fudrp%2Fproposals%2Fcac-pilot-projects-description-18jun08.pdf>

 on the pilot project by professor Chris Reed, a recognized international 
authority on technology law and electronic commerce law .
