Following the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_ann…>, the Latin script community has submitted to ICANN the Proposal for Generation Panel for Latin Script Label Generation Ruleset for the Root Zone (Proposal[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 687 KB], Appendix[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 2.4 MB]). ICANN organization has reviewed the proposal including panel composition and scope, to ensure that requirements set forth in the LGR Procedure[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 772 KB], and in particular the criteria set forth in the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_ann…>, are fulfilled. "On behalf of ICANN we are grateful to the Latin script community for volunteering to develop the Latin script LGR proposal for the root zone," said Sarmad Hussain from the IDN Program at ICANN. With composition and work plan approved, the Latin script Generation Panel will start its work on the label generation rules. According to the LGR Procedure[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 772 KB], the starting point of any Generation Panel's work is the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR), with its second version (MSR-2[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_ann…>) released on 27 April 2015. The full specification of Generation Panel's tasks can be found in the LGR Procedure[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 772 KB] in particular, Section B.3 "Variant Rule Generation Procedure". "I'd like to take this opportunity to reiterate our appreciation for the efforts of many communities towards developing their root zone LGR proposals," said Sarmad Hussain. "We still have more work to do including organizing script panels for Hebrew, Myanmar, Sinhala and Tibetan. I encourage interested parties to lend their skills in support of this effort. There are currently LGR efforts underway by Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Japanese, Korean, Latin and Neo-Brahmi communities. In addition, the Arabic, Armenian, Ethiopic, Georgian, Khmer, Lao and Thai script communities have finalized their root zone LGR proposals[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>, of which the Arabic script proposal has been integrated in the first edition of the Root Zone LGR[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>.

Sarmad Hussain: 12 participants in person ----------------- (05/16/2017 17:23) ----------------- Dennis Tan: @Bill, I'm fine with the work load too. Maybe we can share responsibilities, so that we ensure coverage should schedule conflicts arise NPK: <how were the previous F2F meetings?> Mats Dufberg: I suggest that we have some kind of work shop session where we descuss actual analysis of variants and repertoire, respectively.

Call for volunteers for Repertoire Group and Variant Group
by Mirjana Tasić May 8, 2017

May 8, 2017

Dear GP members, This e-mail has purpose to call GP members to join one of these two groups: Repertoire group and Variant group. Tasks of every group are described in more details in the attachment. If any member of GP, after reading this document, sees that something is not feasible or that I misunderstood something, please do not hesitate, we can discuss every point in these documents, and correct everything that could prevent us to perform in easy and successful way... We need, at least, one Leader to organize each group on one side, and regular members on the other side. Leader of the group should organize the work of the group, take notes, draft necessary documents (Principles, Procedures and so on), try to help regular members in performing their part. Leader will discuss every important issue within the group first, and if necessary with the Panel. Leader will have more responsibilities than a regular member, and must devote more time to this Project. Regular members will discuss the proposed documents, could volunteer for a specific task proposed by the Leader, and perform processing in compliance with the Procedure. Rough estimation is that the Repertoire group has three to four times more work to do than Variant group. So, every member of Latin GP, who is willing to work in either of these groups, should send me an e-mail with simple responses (yes or no) to the questions 1-4: Name of GP member: 1. I prefer to work in Repertoire group 2. I prefer to work in Variant group 3. I can work in either group 4. I can lead the group Please respond till May the 13th, 2017. Regards Mirjana
