    <p>So I guess you are looking for a repeat of what happened in
      2022.  We took a photo of the poster fully signed (see link below)
      and we received an email back from the nice WIPO (seel link below)
      person letting us know it had been placed in a location of
      prominence in the WIPO offices.</p>
    <p>Yes, hopefully we can repeat what happened in 2022.</p>
    <p>Ideally for this upcoming event we could have two or three
      listserv attendees standing by at the time of the handing-over of
      the posters.  They could get some nice photos of the smiling
      recipients receiving the signed posters.<br>

                  <p>Hello folks.  It will be recalled that at the tenth
                    annual e-trademarks listserv reception, which was on
                    Tuesday, May 3, 2022 in Washington, DC, we prepared
                    a poster.  On the poster we listed topics and
                    suggestions for improvement of the Madrid Protocol
                    system administered by WIPO.  During the reception,
                    attendees had the opportunity to sign the poster. 
                    We then gave the poster to one of the WIPO people to
                    take back to Geneva.  We later learned that the
                    poster was put into a place of prominence in the
                    WIPO offices, and I prefer to think that surely at
                    least some of the topics and suggestions got
                    attended to.</p>
                  <p>You can see the 2022 poster, and you can read about
                    its arrival in Geneva, <a
href="https://blog.oppedahl.com/nice-people-at-wipo-received-our-poster/"
                      moz-do-not-send="true">
                      here</a>.</p>
                  <p>I looked over the poster and I think some of the
                    topics and suggestions are still outstanding.  In
                    fact the more I review it, I think that quite a few
                    of the topics and suggestions are still
                    outstanding.  :(<br>
                  </p>
                  <p>Anyway, I think it would be a nice touch if we
                    could work on similar posters for this year's
                    reception.  </p>
                  <p>A first poster will list topics and suggestions for
                    improvement of USPTO's trademark processes and
                    systems.  Attendees who wish to do so could sign
                    that poster during the reception.  Commissioner
                    Gooder has RSVP'd that he will attend, so I think we
                    could offer the signed poster to him to take back to
                    his office.  To submit a topic or suggestion for
                    this poster, click

                      here</a>.  Feel free to submit more than one topic
                    or suggestion.<br>
                  </p>
                  <p>A second poster will list topics and suggestions
                    for improvement of WIPO's trademark processes and
                    systems.  Attendees who wish to do so could sign
                    that poster during the reception.  We have an RSVP
                    from at least one of the WIPO Madrid people, so we
                    could offer the signed poster to him to take back to
                    his office.  To submit a topic or suggestion for
                    this poster, click
                    <a

                      moz-do-not-send="true">
                      here</a>.  Feel free to submit more than one topic
                    or suggestion.</p>
                  <p>We will need one or two listserv members to serve
                    as volunteers on this.  A few days before the
                    reception, we will turn off the submission forms. 
                    And then we will need to work through the
                    submissions.  We will need to edit the submissions,
                    merging topics as needed to minimize duplication. 
                    We will need to revise for consistency of style and,
                    perhaps, politeness and tone.  Please if you would
                    like to volunteer for this, drop me a note.  And
                    then we would print out the posters for display on
                    easels at the reception.  Attendees could sign the
                    posters, which you ought to do as soon as possible
                    after the reception starts.  Then when one or
                    another of our honored guests arrives, we could
                    greet the guest and welcome him or her, and offer
                    him or her the poster.  My best guess is we would
                    not want to go into the substantive content of the
                    poster during the reception itself, other than very
                    brief recognition of the shared goals.<br>
