Fwd: [soac-discussion] Universal Acceptance of Domains - 14 March Discussion Scheduled at the ICANN Meeting in Costa Rica
A forwarded message, in preparation of Costa Rica meeting. Possible controversy regarding this subject, with a question about universal acceptance of .XXX Kind regards, Olivier -------- Message original -------- Sujet: [soac-discussion] Universal Acceptance of Domains - 14 March Discussion Scheduled at the ICANN Meeting in Costa Rica Date : Mon, 27 Feb 2012 11:02:03 -0800 De : David Olive <david.olive@icann.org> Pour : soac-discussion@icann.org <soac-discussion@icann.org> To Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees Leadership: Universal Acceptance of Domains is an ongoing effort within ICANN dedicated to raising awareness of issues relating to ensuring that all domain names work correctly in software on the Internet. ICANN initiated the project when issues were first identified relating to the earlier rounds of adding new gTLDs. For example, some software and web sites have made the assumption that top-level domains were always either 2 or 3 characters long, which is problematic for a number of newer TLDs. More attention has been given to these issues with the adoption of IDN top-level domains, and with the expectation that many more ASCII and IDN gTLDs will be added to the DNS in the near future. In order to best assure successful adoption of these various new domains, and that software is implemented correctly to cater for all available domains, collaboration is needed between software developers and vendors, network administrators and others. ICANN is conducting outreach within the ICANN community to develop a plan to best improve awareness of these issues. A working group meeting on this topic is scheduled to take place during the ICANN meeting in Costa Rica on Wednesday, 14 March 2012. This will serve as a good opportunity for all involved to share their experiences and suggestions. These suggestions will feed into ICANN's future work in this area. *We hope that representatives* *from various Advisory Committees and constituencies can attend this working* *session and provide us with their valuable feedback.* Please direct your questions or comments on this topic to Nadia Sokolova <nadia.sokolova@icann.org <mailto:nadia.sokolova@icann.org>>.

Olivier, did you mean .XXX in the sense of any generic TLD, or the explicit (pun intended) .xxx TLD recently approved. Alan At 29/02/2012 12:54 PM, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond wrote:
