Re: [council] FW: IDN Implementation Guidelines
Hello everyone, Do note also that this request was flagged by Sarmad during his briefing/update to the GNSO at the Saturday weekend session in Los Angeles, when he also emphasized the importance of getting GNSO as well as ccNSO input into a possible revision of the IDN Guidelines for second level domains. In addition, although this topic was not specifically discussed when members of the GNSO community met with members of the Board¹s IDN Variant Working Group in London, a suggestion was made then that GNSO community members could self-organize to provide input from the GNSO and industry perspective on topics of importance to the GNSO community. Given the discussion in Los Angeles about the need to ensure that protections for second level IDN domain names are adequate, this could be a good topic for the Council to ask for GNSO volunteers to work on suggested input. As such, the Council may wish to consider: (1) whether the suggested deadline is realistic and sufficient, and/or (2) whether, in addition to Councilors circulating Akram¹s letter to their respective SG/Cs, the Council should request assistance from the GNSO community in the form of an informal volunteer group to develop draft input on this topic.
