Hi all,

We need someone to volunteer for the Presidents Advisory Committee on
IDN.
This is a committee being formed pursuant to an ICANN Board Resolution.

The scope and responsibility of the Committee is to provide the Board
and ICANN community with advice on issues that relate to IDN policies,
in particular issues that impact the implementation of IDN especially at
the top level.

More specifically the committee will -

* Ensure discussions on IDN within ICANN contributes to the development
of the name space.

* Ensure discussions promote the use of languages on the Internet in a
manner that ensures the Internet's continued stability and
interoperability.

* Strengthen inclusion, coordination and collaboration of all
organizations involved in IDN discussions and the developing
implementation of multilingual domain name solutions.

* Ensure discussions between the different organizations and
stakeholders (technical, political, government, private sector) on
challenges in the successful implementation of IDNs in ICANN's area of
responsibility, including the DNS.

* Contribute towards the ongoing discussions, and identification of
challenges, in the successful implementation of IDNs.

Paul Twomey has specifically asked for someone from the Registrars to
take part in this committee. The representative will not be a formal
representative from the Registrars constituency, but would essentially
bring in the view points of Registrars to the group.

I would like to have someone who is well aware of IDN related issues and
aspects volunteer for this.

If any of you wish to volunteer or know of someone we should nominate
for this please mail me

Thanks
Bhavin
