Subject: Question about coordination principles for C J and K

 

Dear Sarmad

 

         During the recent discussion in ICANN 51 and CGP fortnightly meeting, we realized that there is different understandings about the coordination principles proposed by IP.

        

         CGP discussed this issue with J and K, then we drafted a document (as the attached file) including two different solutions based on two different understandings.

        

         Could you please tell us which solution complies the original intention of the coordination principles?

2)       Opposite to the case 1, the other understanding is that “Variant mappings” is a tight coupled relationship which applies in all LGRs, and “Variant Type” must be ”allocatable” or “blocked”, illustrated by the following example:

 In this table, no matter what language tag was set, for any given code point in a variant mapping cluster, its variants must be configured to either “allocatable” or “blocked”, its variants cannot stay as an INDEPENDENT code point, regardless of the fact that in Japanese language environment they are treated as different OLD form and NEW form.

It means that if anybody registers the label .一一 for the first time under the und-Jpan tag, then nobody can register the label .弌弌 under any tag. If they had first registered the label .弌弌 under the und-Hani tag, then the same applicant can request to register the label .一一 as well (but whether that request is granted, and how, is outside the scope of the LGR).

Moreover, only the allocatable code points can be used to generate valid whole label package, and this whole label package will go (be allocated) to the SAME applicant, which means, the co-existence of old form label registrant and new form label registrant will not happen at Root level.
