[ICANN]<http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-06-17-en ________________________________ Khmer Script Community Forms Generation Panel for Developing the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) 17 June 2015 ICANN is pleased to announce the formation of the Generation Panel to develop Label Generation Rules (LGR) for the Root Zone for Khmer script. Following the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en>, on 4 June 2015 the Khmer script community submitted to ICANN the Proposal for the Generation Panel for the Khmer Script Label Generation Ruleset for the Root Zone<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/khmer-script-lgr-proposal-17jun…> [PDF, 420 KB]. ICANN staff has reviewed the proposal including panel composition and scope, to ensure that requirements set forth in the LGR Procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB], and in particular the criteria set forth in the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en>, are fulfilled. "On behalf of ICANN, we would like to thank Khmer script community members for volunteering to develop the Khmer LGR proposal for the Root Zone," said Sarmad Hussain from the IDN Program at ICANN, "and National Institute of Posts, Telecommunications, and Information and Communication Technology of Cambodia for hosting the panel." With composition and work plan approved, the Khmer Generation Panel will start its work on the label generation rules. According to the LGR Procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB], the starting point of any Generation Panel's work is the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR), with its second version (MSR-2<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2015-04-27-en>) released on 27 April 2015. The full specification of Generation Panel's tasks can be found in the LGR Procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB] in particular, Section B.3 "Variant Rule Generation Procedure". ICANN has provided a central public workspace<https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Khmer+GP> on the project website where Khmer Generation Panel composition, work plan updates, public reports, contact details, and any other relevant information will be included. As a reminder, and to highlight the importance of script community involvement required in the development of the IDN Root Zone LGR, we would like to reiterate the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en>. A successful development of the Root Zone LGR depends on having Generation Panels for each script represented in the Root Zone. In addition to ongoing efforts with the Arabic, Armenian, Chinese, Japanese, Khmer and Neo-Brahmi, Generation Panel formation is expected to cover other scripts including Cyrillic, Ethiopic, Georgian, Greek, Hebrew, Korean, Lao, Latin, Myanmar, Sinhala, Thai and Tibetan. For further information on how to form a Generation Panel, please refer to the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en> and to the additional supporting documentation provided on the Root Zone LGR Project website<https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Root+Zone+LGR+Proje…>. Individual interests may be emailed to idntlds(a)icann.org<mailto:idntlds@icann.org>. ________________________________ About ICANN ICANN's mission is to ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet.

The staff have identified and evaluated the location and cost of a suitable office facility. The targeted move-in date is 1 October 2015.

There are currently 18 staff members based in Singapore providing a range of services such as registry and registrar services management, stakeholder engagement, contractual compliance and customer service support, as well as support functions such as operations, IT, communications, legal, finance and HR. In Istanbul, there are 12 staff members also providing a range of services including registry and registrar services, contractual compliance, policy development support, communications and HR, and plans to hire a Customer Service Center role to support our globalization strategy to provide multi-lingual support.
