Re: [council] Re: Joint ccNSO/GNSO IDN Working Group (JIG)

Hi Edmon, Stéphane, All,

Do we have an update on 1-character IDN TLD to address concern that ccNSO /
SSAC has?

If we are not doing anything now (i.e. forward the JIG recommendation to the
Board given the new AG is out for comment) then it will put the GNSO council
in awkward position.
