Update: IDN ccTLD Fast Track Draft Implementation Plan
26
November 2008
ICANN is pleased to release
an updated
draft Implementation Plan for the IDN ccTLD fast track process [PDF, 265K].
The updated document contains clarifying information about the notion of IDN
tables.
An IDN Table is a table
listing all those characters that a particular TLD registry supports. If one or
more of these characters are considered a variant this is indicated next to
that/those characters. It is also indicated which character a particular
character is a variant to. The IDN table usually holds characters representing
a specific language but can also be characters from a specific script.
With the updated draft
document, ICANN is seeking community input about the approach to development of
the IDN tables. The comment period for the Draft Implementation Plan has been
extended to 7 January 2009 to allow for additional community review of the updated
draft document.
Comments on the Draft
Implementation Plan are welcome via email to ft-implementation@icann.org . An
archive of all comments received will be publicly posted at http://forum.icann.org/lists/ft-implementation/.
