Dear members of the ICANN community,
The delegation and management of Variant TLDs remains an important issue. The
ICANN community seeks to develop solutions to enable the delegation of Variant
TLDs for the benefit of users in different regions. ICANN has publishing for
public comment a Draft Proposal for an IDN Variant Issues Project – a proposal
for moving this work forward. (
http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-5-21feb11-en.htm)
At the upcoming San Francisco meeting, ICANN is planning to conduct a workshop
to discuss the draft proposal. In this session, representatives from different
language communities will also be invited to provide an overview of the
potential issues with IDN variant TLDs.
If you are interested in this topic, we welcome your participation. Below
please find the workshop details.
IDN Variant TLDs
Date: Wed 16 Mar 2011 - 15:00 - 16:30
Room: Elizabethan A-C
Overview
In this session, we describe a proposed approach to identifying issues of
delegating IDN variant TLDs through five case studies. The plan proposes the
creation of teams composed of community experts in linguistics, DNS, registry
operations, and policy. The session will seek to recruit interested persons for
this effort.
Specifically, ICANN proposes to conduct five case studies (suggested cases are
Chinese, Arabic, Latin, Indic, and Cyrillic) to investigate the set of issues
that need to be resolved to facilitate a good user experience for IDN variant
TLDs. From these five case studies, an Issues Report will be created. The
corresponding Board resolution can be found here:
http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-10dec10-en.htm#7).
In this session, we also invite representatives from IDN using communities to
provide an overview of the potential issues with IDN variant TLDs.
Who Should Attend? | Anyone interested in IDN variants.
How to Participate Remotely?
