Dear Dmitry, All, The work we are undertaking is guided by general principles in RFC 6912 and more specifically by the Procedure <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/draft-lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.…> (pp. 41-43). These include (among others) the Inclusion principle: “… every … code point is excluded until reviewed and then explicitly included” and the Conservatism principle: “…reject anything … not positively … safe, [and] in the event of disagreement … the proposed rule … is automatically excluded from the root label generation rules.” It will be useful to review all the principles. Root zone will be more conservative than second level, meaning that everything in the second level IDN table may not be in the root zone. Thus, inclusion of a code point at second level does not presume inclusion in the root zone. The case for inclusion of each code point in the root zone has to be made in its own right. Other generation panels have used a mix of the following sources to identify characters used in a language: a. National and/or international standards for different languages using the script b. Primary school (e.g. Grade-1 or Grade-2) books published by the Education Ministry in a country c. Grammar books for a language listing characters used to write a language d. Use of characters in contemporary published materials for general public, e.g. online newspapers e. Scholarly articles commenting on use of script for a particular language f. More general online sources, e.g. see http://omniglot.com/writing/index.htm g. Second level IDN tables Hope this helps.

What evidence we need to provide that letters are worth including or not, besides being used in IDN tables? Surely, some letters may be not part of MSR - but apart from that, languages are here with their alphabet and censoring letters out without "independent evidence" (or what?) is bad idea - goes against "be liberal in what you accept" principle. I can see why adding letters beyond use in IDN - for example, some languages are not used for ccTLD domains yet have been widely used and their alphabets are included into consideration. So please clarify this position before we start. How this was handled in other panels?

It lists all the code points allowed by MSR-2. I have added columns which we eventually need to fill in. This requires following tasks: 1. For each code point, list the language (including EGIDS #) which requires the code point to be included. a. This will also require giving an argument and a reference in support of the code point. For example, if the code point is used in a second level IDN table, that is a possible argument in support. However, please note that having a code point included at the second level may not be a sufficient argument in itself. For cases which are unclear, additional independent evidence may be needed. 2. For each code point, determine if it is a variant of another code point within Cyrillic script. For this purpose, we will need to have a set of principles which clarify what the community considers as such variants. 3. For each code point, determine if there are variants for related scripts, as listed (Latin, Greek, Armenian, Georgian?). Cross-script variants are generally based on homoglyph relations (i.e. visually identical). However, we need to discuss how we will finalize these. Following the agenda circulated by Dusan (see the trailing email), for the meeting before lunch, I would suggest that we do: i. a quick pass on 1. above to list code points which should be included (and mark those code points currently excluded), then ii. use the code points included to do the analysis for 3. above (columns H-K in the excel sheet attached). We do it this in the order (simple to complex cases): a. Georgian? b. Armenian (also see analysis done by Armenian script GP) c. Greek d. Latin Again, we should limit analysis to exact match at this time (though we can identify close to exact match cases separately for any further consideration). We will take up 1. and 2. above in detail during the session after lunch. Please see the data in the Dropbox folder --> F2F meeting Istanbul 25 Nov 16.
