Abstract:

This note describes issues raised by the deployment and use of

Internationalized Domain Names. It describes problems both at the

time of registration and those for use of those names for use in the

DNS. It recommends that IETF should update the IDN related RFCs and

a framework to be followed in doing so, as well as summarizing and

identifying some work that is required outside the IETF. In

particular, it proposes that some changes be investigated for the

IDNA standard and its supporting tables, based on experience gained

since those standards were completed.

Document status:

This document reviews the IDN landscape from an IETF perspective and

presents the recommendations and conclusions of an IAB-convened ad

hoc committee charged with reviewing IDN issues and the path forward

(See Section 6). Its recommendations are recommendations to the

IETF, or in a few cases to other bodies, for topics to be examined

and actions to be taken if those bodies, after their examinations,

consider those actions appropriate.

Neither the IAB nor the members of the ad hoc committee have yet

reached consensus that this document is ready for final publication.

However, the IAB concluded that it was appropriate to expose it, as a

working draft, for community comment and feedback. Such comments

should be sent to iab@iab.org (relevant material will be forwarded to

the IAB IDN Ad Hoc committee).

Item 5: Update on status of proposed .com agreement

Item 6: Next steps on policy issues related to proposed .com agreement

E.g

- policy for renewal of gtld agreements

- funding model policy (possible new policy)

- policy for capping fees that a registry can charge

- exclusions in agreements from future consensus polices or changes in

consensus polices

Item 7: Update on GNSO review (Dr Liz Williams)

Item 8: Any other business
