I don't think so.

There are two WTO sites on the web:

http://www.wto.org/

http://www.gatt.org/

They look almost identical, except the first page. The first one
seems to be the real one and there is no such information there.
The second one seems to be a joke, as you see this there:

> On Monday, May 20, the WTO Secretariat approved

Somewhere in there you also see:

A nice joke though. I liked it a lot.

Best,
