In December, 2011, it was announced that the [[National Arbitration Forum]] (NAB) would handle the Rapid Evaluation Service; they would also be running a second, similar service for ICM, the Charter Eligibility Dispute Resolution Policy. The NAB has been a [[UDRP]] evaluator since the late 1990s, and have evaluated over 17,000 domain disputes. The system will be paperless, and the Rapid Evaluation Service lets trademark owners quickly and efficiently challenge any infringement, while the Charter Eligibility Dispute Resolution Policy allows users to challenge the eligibility of a .xxx domain owner. Those owners are expected to be companies or individuals professionally involved in the adult entertainment industry.<ref>[http://www.thedomains.com/2011/12/05/nab-announces-its-rapid-evaluation-service-to-handle-xxx-disputes-like-the-udrp-but-faster/ NAB Announces Its Rapid Evaluation Service to Handle XXX Disputes like the UDRP but Faster, The Domains.com]</ref>
