Hi Robin, Karen, et al. Here is what I was remembering from Work Track 4 idns and technical: My question to co-chair Rubens Kuhl: “Separately, could you please remind me what we said in Work Track 4 re registry rights in relation to idn equivalents to English TLDs owned by that registry? (This came up in Work Track 3 as to string similarity issues.)” Rubens’ answer: “Regarding specific cases where the IDN TLD happens to be a variant of the ASCII TLD, like .québec and .quebec, the recorded decision was to allow that to the same registry operator, provided some form of bundling is implemented. But it wouldn't apply for instance to translations and transliterations, like the Amazon or the Verisign ones in the 2012-round.” Anne E.
