Do the Nominet experts follow the DRS Policy or do they follow the Terms within the the Contract of Registration that includes the DRS Policy?
If the registrant is bound by the DRS because he signs the contract does this actually mean there is no separate part...it is as one?
For example, by signing a contract of registration you gain the following right (as at that date) :-
The right to derive the benefit of its use (Nominets given definition).
Given Nominet haven't defined the 'use' then how can an expert state under the DRS (part of the contract) 'an expert may well be justified in concluding that the rights may be established at a later date' (DRS02215).
If USE remains underdefined, and the experts do not consider trade mark infringement as part of the DRS then on what grounds are they establishing abuse?
