The Root Zone LGR will be used to determine valid top-level Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) labels and their variant labels, if any. Work is underway by the community-based Generation Panels[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resources...> on proposals for additional scripts to be integrated in the future versions of the Root Zone LGR. These include Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Japanese, Korean, Latin and Neo-Brahmi panels. Generation Panels for more scripts, including Hebrew, Myanmar, Sinhala, Tibetan and Thaana are actively being solicited as per the Call for Generation Panels[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_anno...>. Individuals with deep experience or interest in these scripts are encouraged to volunteer and help enable a multilingual Internet.
