I think this would more narrowly proscribe IDN ccTLDs than I think is
necessary, but does provide impetus to end the fast track asap and get the
full policy developed.  It then remains an issue we must continue to monitor
in that ccPDP.  So I'm OK with it, too, but could be more flexible if
needed.  We at least need to make sure the current language changes, as it
is too open-ended and vague.

Tim's wording seems pretty good to me.
