Call For Volunteers: Join A Generation Panel, Speak Up for Your Language

Dear All, Satish Babu, Co-Chair of the At-Large Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Policy Working Group, in collaboration with Sarmad Hussain, Senior Manager of the ICANN IDN Program, has requested a call for volunteers in the Generation Panel. Kindly see the details below. ** Speak up for your Language! Join a Panel Today In the past, labels in the Internet's Root Zone could only contain ASCII characters. The rules for creating new top-level domain labels were simple: labels must (i) only be composed of letters in the English alphabet, and (ii) consist of two to 63 characters. All of that is changing now. The future holds a multilingual Internet, where a user from anywhere across the world can navigate entirely in his or her native language. Be a part of this historic change! ICANN is calling for volunteers to serve on one of several panels that will define the rules for generating new top-level domain labels for the script or writing systems for their community. Join a Generation Panel today by emailing idntlds(a)icann.org. Make sure to tell us the language you speak and the script or writing system you want to get involved with. Please help inform and motivate others to join as well. The goal of these panels is to support the use of Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) by determining what is a valid top-level domain label in each script or writing system. This involves answering three questions: (i) which subset of characters from the various scripts can be used to form a label*, (ii) which of these characters (if any) may be considered confusable or variants by end users, and (iii) what are additional constraints** on these labels? As there is a single Root Zone, all such label generation rules for all the scripts must be merged into a single reference, which is called the Label Generation Rule-set (LGR). The ICANN community has established a procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> to develop the LGR for the Root Zone. This procedure is divided into three steps: 1. The basis is a subset of Unicode code points which may be appropriate for the Root Zone and called the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR). 2. Communities representing various scripts (e.g., Arabic, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Greek, Chinese, Latin, Thai, etc.) are invited to organize into Generation Panels to start from the MSR and propose the label generation rules (which contains the three types of rules defined above) for their respective scripts. 3. The script-based proposals developed by the communities are reviewed by a panel of experts called the Integration Panel. Proposals that meet the criteria in the procedure<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> are integrated into the LGR by the Integration Panel. The LGR is incrementally built upon until it contains all the necessary scripts. For Step 1, ICANN recently released the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR-1)<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2014-06-20-en>, covering 22 scripts (Arabic, Bengali, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Georgian, Greek, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Han, Hangul, Hebrew, Hiragana, Kannada, Katakana, Lao, Latin, Malayalam, Oriya, Sinhala, Tamil, Telugu and Thai) and containing 32,790 code points short-listed from 97,973 allowable code points from Unicode version 6.3. Work on additional scripts will be completed soon. Step 2 is now underway; ICANN needs your help in developing proposals to extend the Root Zone LGR to cover each of these scripts. There is a role for everyone: general script community representation as well as volunteers with knowledge of scripts, linguistics, Unicode, IDNA/DNS or policy. Volunteering is easy; just send an email to idntlds(a)icann.org. Join a Generation Panel today. Help ICANN support top-level domain names in your language! Note: *Code points appropriate for labels must be letters and should be in widespread modern use. **For example, a label cannot be formed entirely by combining marks and must contain at least two letters Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Ariel Liang, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie Peregrine and Terri Agnew ICANN Policy Staff in support of ALAC E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> Facebook: www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge<https://www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge> Twitter: @ICANN_AtLarge<https://twitter.com/ICANN_AtLarge>

APRALO spirit - this is how it calls:))) All your input is welcomed and ideas are appreciated, so, let's brainstorm via e-mail if any suggestions come and we will finalize during our monthly call on November 25th. Yannis, your suggestion for souvenirs, can you give estimated price for this and if possible can you send a picture to have an idea? Any other ideas for souvenirs to participants?? - please, if you have suggestions, provide with details, price, picture and/or potential sponsors whom you think we can apply for funding. Any ALS would like to give out something special??? - bring your ideas here and we will compile, summarise and provide the final feedback. We are ALL ONE TEAM - APRALO, so, let's once again prove and show to the whole world that by CELEBRATING DIVERSITY we want to show how united we are!!!

Dear all, I have included a summary of the progress in the WIKI page " APRALO Outreach Event" created for the event. Please feel free to update the WIKI page with your notes and ideas. https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/APRALO+Outreach+Event+Workspace Thank you!

Thank you all for your contributions!

So, both Kuek will help with official invitation, Suhaidi will provide details to him, as well as Suhaidi will talk to principal to identify all other costs related to the travel of this group not to face challenges and us not to be in a wrong position (their accommodation, travel, and other related costs should be taken into consideration by the team itself). But agree that this is really a good idea and if it can work, this will be a really unique entertainment during our showcase.

Fwd: Revised Singapore Showcase - brainstroming
by Holly Raiche 12 Nov '14

12 Nov '14

HI Everyone Just to get everyone’s head around doing all this again! The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard. First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions? And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore) and Maureen - do we still have Emani’s stuff - maybe we can update it?? And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking.

The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates. I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well. Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks. After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them). We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London. So, any suggestions are welcome. Thank you all for a great team work.

09 Nov '14

Hi all.. just reminding ourselves what we did in Singapore and trying to think HOW WE CAN TOP IT. It was a brilliant effort. 1. Ali welcomed everyone to the showcase with a red fan 2. Don gave a gift from APTLD 3. Very short speeches 4. The artiste with the changing masks (amazing) 5. MOU signings with APNIC and APTLD 6. The trivia competition with prizes from the region 7. Emani's "greetings" movie and red lanyards 8. APRALO attendee ppt 9. The lion dance 10. (additionally) The tea ceremony I don't think we have to do as much this time, but it has to be different. . I like Yannis's red packets of candy - maintaining our gift of something red . Wearing something red to the Showcase . Satish and others totally support the mix of traditional cultures being representative of the region - "celebrating diversity" . Perhaps another type of ceremony - like the tea ceremony but different? . The Dikir Barat could be this year's alternative to the Lion Dance (if Kuek can find a team to come along) . The Quiz thing went down well.. We've done trivia twice! Perhaps we could involve ALSes somehow (as Fouad suggests) - like some sort of mapping checklist, matching APRALO members present with where they come from on the official ALS map - encouraging some interaction during refreshments time perhaps ? or similar. . How about Asian exercise class in the mornings? (brain gym at 5am?) Any other ideas? M Hi all.. just reminding ourselves what we did in Singapore and trying to think HOW WE CAN TOP IT.
