Re: [ga] DN TLD Allocation Implementation Processes

I am afraid the  http://icann.org/en/topics/idn pages includes wrong 
wording. It says:
"Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) are domain names represented 
by local language characters. Such domain names could contain letters 
or characters from non-ASCII scripts (for example, Arabic or 
Chinese). Many efforts are ongoing in the Internet community to make 
domain names available in character sets other than ASCII."
It should read something like:

"Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) are ASCII domain names the 
labels of which can algorithmly be associated to non English context 
non ASCII labels that could contain letters or characters from 
non-ASCII scripts (for example, Arabic or Chinese). Other efforts are 
ongoing in the Internet community to make domain names available in 
character sets other than ASCII in an English context."
In particular, I am not sure of the meaning of "_local_ language".
