Brief Overview: |
The Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Implementation Guidelines relate to the IDN registration policies and practices, designed to minimize the risk of cybersquatting and consumer confusion,
to cater to the interests of communities using local languages and scripts. Following the
Call
for Community Experts[icann.org], a Working Group (WG) was formed in October 2015 to review the current version (3.0[icann.org])
of the IDN
Implementation Guidelines[icann.org], last updated in 2011. The WG updated the Guidelines and conducted the
first
public comment[icann.org] on them in March 2017. Based on the feedback received from the community, the WG has further updated the draft guidelines. The WG is releasing the latest draft version of the
IDN
Implementation Guidelines 4.0[icann.org] [PDF, 316 KB] to get general feedback as well as response to some specific queries highlighted in this draft. Based on responses, the WG will finalize the Guidelines. |
