Best, /Stephen From: Ccnso-council <ccnso-council-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of Katrina Sataki <katrina@nic.lv> Date: Monday, February 19, 2018 at 03:40 To: "ccnso-council@icann.org" <ccnso-council@icann.org> Subject: [ccnso-council] Resolution No 1: the ccNSO Study Group on use of Emoji Dear Councillors, As our last meeting was not quorate (something to discuss at our next meeting, perhaps?), we need to adopt three resolutions on-line. I will send them in separate emails. --- Resolution No 1 --- The Board requested the ccNSO to look into the use of Emoji as Second level domains as currently some ccTLDs allow registration (for example, see: http://domainincite.com/22575-emojis-coming-to-another-cctld ). Related, there is a need to ensure that the Fast Track Implementation Plan and the overall IDN ccTLD policy refer to the IDNA 2008 suite and its successor, to avoid misunderstanding about the use of Emoji. Following the Board's request, the Council asked the ccNSO Secretariat to draft Terms of Reference for an Emoji Study Group. The suggestion is to defer the decision on call for volunteers to the face-to face meeting, after presentations and discussions on the topic at the Tech Day and ccNSO Meeting days. Draft Decision The ccNSO Council adopts the Terms of Reference for the ccNSO Study Group on use Emoji as second level domains. The call for volunteers will be revisited at the next meeting of the Council. --- Please let the list know if you have any objections to this decision by Sunday, 25 February 2018, 17.00 UTC. For your reference the proposed ToF document is included. Kind regards, ]{atrina
