        Comments Encouraged on the Final Report of IDNC Working Group on ccTLD

        Public Comment Forum Open Through 15 August 2008

        Summary: The IDNC Working Group (IDNC WG) has developed its Final 
Report on feasible methods that would enable the timely and efficient ("fast 
track") introduction of a limited number of non-contentious IDN ccTLDs, while 
an overall long-term IDN ccTLD policy is being developed. The Final Report 
highlights the latest topics and issues that need to be considered in 
developing (1) a mechanism for the selection of the IDN ccTLD string and (2) a 
mechanism to designate an IDN ccTLD manager. The ICANN Board of Directors 
accepted the Final report at its 26 June meeting in Paris, France and directed 
that the report be made available for public comments.

        Process: In addition to opening this new public forum, the ICANN Staff 
has been directed by the Board to begin work on implementation measures with 
relevant stakeholders to implement the fast track and to prepare a detailed 
implementation report to the Board before the ICANN Cairo meeting in November 
2008. Comments submitted in this forum will be used by the staff to help 
fulfill those obligations.

        Background: The IDNC WG was chartered by ICANN's Board to develop and 
report on feasible methods, if any, that would enable the introduction (in a 
timely manner and in a manner that ensures the continued security and stability 
of the Internet) of a limited number of non-contentious IDN ccTLDs, associated 
with the ISO 3166-1 two-letter codes (both the official code list of ISO 3166-1 
and the list of reserved ISO 3166-1 code elements)(popularly known as "the fast 
track"), while the overall IDN ccTLD policy is being developed. The scope of 
the IDNC WG was limited to developing methods that would not pre-empt the 
ultimate policy outcomes of the IDN cc Policy Development Process (ccPDP).

        As described in the Final Report, the fast track approach requires two 
specific mechanisms:

        1.      A mechanism for the selection of the IDN ccTLD string; and 
        2.      A mechanism to designate an IDN ccTLD manager).
