[council] JIG updates

["Edmon Chung" <edmon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

The JIG had its kick-off meeting on March 30, and started its bi-weekly meeting 
since April 20 (except for cancelling on the May 4th meeting).

The group has identified 3 topics of common interest:
1. Single Character IDN TLD
2. IDN TLD Variants
3. Universal Acceptability of IDN TLDs

The group has received briefing from staff on issue 1, and had discussions 
regarding issue 2 (still awaiting staff briefing on the issue nevertheless).

There will be 1 meeting of the group in Brussels (tentatively scheduled for 
Sunday June 20, but we are still hoping to coordinate timing so that Tina Dam 
from staff can join the meeting as her briefing on issue 2 is important for the 
group's work).

In the last meeting, the group discussed the interest to start working on a 
document from the group for consideration on the 3 issues.

Edmon
