Dear all,

ICANN’s efforts at promoting universal acceptance in all TLDs, including the current draft of the Roadmap, is summarized here: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/universal-acceptance-initiative-2014-10-03-en. As Chuck also noted, this is one of the outcomes of the JIG Final Report on Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs.

Thanks and cheers
Mary
