Purpose (Brief):

The purpose of this project is to resolve many of the issues necessary to 
delegate variant TLDs. The first IDN Variant Issues Project explored the issues 
associated with the potential inclusion of IDN variant TLDs in the DNS root 
zone, at the request of the ICANN Board and the community. The first two phases 
of the project have been completed with the publication of the final Integrated 
Issues Report on 20 February 2012 and the project is now entering its next 
phase. ICANN created a program plan for next steps, posted it for public 
comment, and presented it in a session at the ICANN meeting in Costa Rica in 
March 2012. Based on the comments received to date, the project plan has been 
updated, and the team is seeking input on the revised plan during this public 
comment period.
