Hello friends, greetings from Dublin! I have sent an email to ALAC, to express my concern about the absence from a placeholder in the current draft of the Applicant Guide of ICANN for the outcome of the Policy Development Process Diacritics of the Latin Alphabet.
This PDP addresses the ability for end users to see their languages correctly represented in the Domain Name System (DNS), including the use of diacritical marks in Latin labels. It is a theoretical question: it affects the way communities Entire linguistic communities write their names and identify themselves online.
I am not requesting any extension for the next round of applications. no changes to the published schedule.
The request I make is specific and procedural: that the Guide of the Applicant include a clear clause stating that if the PDP of Diacritics of Latin Script presents its recommendations within the within the expected timeframe, these will be incorporated into this round.
We consider this as a reasonable adaptation of community work in course that has a direct impact on linguistic and cultural accuracy of the users.
I would like to be able to make my comment on behalf of the region in the Forum Public, I know that there is no material time to be able to make a query, I will do so on my own behalf, but it would be very good if our new Chair Lance Hinds, organize a consultation on this issue and make a recommendation to the Board of Directors from our region. Kind regards
