[lgr] FW: ICANN News Alert -- The Ethiopic Script Community Forms Generation Panel for Developing the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR)
by Sarmad Hussain Dec. 22, 2015

Dec. 22, 2015

FYI From: ICANN News Alert [mailto:communications@icann.org] Sent: Wednesday, December 23, 2015 2:50 AM Subject: ICANN News Alert -- The Ethiopic Script Community Forms Generation Panel for Developing the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) <http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-12-22-en _____ The Ethiopic Script Community Forms Generation Panel for Developing the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) 22 December 2015 ICANN is pleased to announce the formation of the Generation Panel to develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) for the Ethiopic script. Following the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en> , on 17 December 2015 the Ethiopic script community submitted to ICANN the Proposal for Generation Panel for Ethiopic Script Label Generation Ruleset for the Root Zone <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ethiopic-script-lgr-proposal-22…> [PDF, 448 KB]. ICANN staff has reviewed the proposal including panel composition and scope, to ensure that requirements set forth in the LGR Procedure <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB], and in particular the criteria set forth in the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en> , are fulfilled. "On behalf of ICANN we are grateful to the Ethiopic script community for volunteering to develop the Ethiopic script LGR proposal for the Root Zone," said Sarmad Hussain from the IDN Program at ICANN. With composition and work plan approved, the Ethiopic script Generation Panel will start its work on the label generation rules. According to the LGR Procedure <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB], the starting point of any Generation Panel's work is the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR), with its second version (MSR-2 <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2015-04-27-en> ) released on 27 April 2015. The full specification of Generation Panel's tasks can be found in the LGR Procedure <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> [PDF, 772 KB] in particular, Section B.3 "Variant Rule Generation Procedure". ICANN has provided a central public workspace <https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Ethiopic+Script+GP> on the project website where the Ethiopic script Generation Panel composition, work plan updates, public reports, contact details, and any other relevant information will be included. As a reminder, and to highlight the importance of script community involvement required in the development of the IDN Root Zone LGR, we would like to reiterate the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en> . A successful development of the Root Zone LGR depends on having Generation Panels for each script represented in the Root Zone. In addition to ongoing efforts by the communities for Chinese, Cyrillic, Ethiopic, Greek, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Lao, Latin, Neo-Brahmi and Thai, Generation Panel formation is expected to cover other scripts including Georgian, Hebrew, Myanmar, Sinhala and Tibetan. For further information on how to form a Generation Panel, please refer to the Call for Generation Panels to Develop Root Zone Label Generation Rules <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-07-11-en> and to the additional supporting documentation provided on the Root Zone LGR Project website <https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Root+Zone+LGR+Proje…> . Individual interests may be emailed to idntlds(a)icann.org <mailto:idntlds@icann.org> . About ICANN ICANN's mission is to ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet you have to type an address into your computer - a name or a number. That address has to be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the world. Without that coordination we wouldn't have one global Internet. ICANN was formed in 1998. It is a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation with participants from all over the world dedicated to keeping the Internet secure, stable and interoperable. It promotes competition and develops policy on the Internet's unique identifiers. ICANN doesn't control content on the Internet. It cannot stop spam and it doesn't deal with access to the Internet. But through its coordination role of the Internet's naming system, it does have an important impact on the expansion and evolution of the Internet.

Dear colleagues, I wish you a good holiday and Happy New Year 2016. A reminder about our next meeting on Jan. 5: https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/5+January+2016 1. Attendance 2. Draft Panel Formation Proposal<https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Draft+Panel+Formati…> a.

AOB 5. DoNM == Notes 2. I have put up a rough first draft as far as the end of 1.2. Your edits and better examples are welcome. 3. should be up to date from our last meeting. I used Track Changes in the Word version. Please let me know if I've missed anything. There may be inconsistency about the status of Romanization in our work. Code points for Pinyin are tentatively allowed, but those necessary to Romanize Indian languages are not. Interestingly www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/28/summary/hi.html<http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/28/summary/hi.html> does not list consonants with dots below (which are used for Romanizing retroflex consonants in some systems). == The meeting is at UTC 17:00.

First version of the work schedule
by Dillon, Chris Dec. 17, 2015

Dec. 17, 2015

Dear colleagues, Please find attached a work schedule for comment. The final version will form part of our panel formation proposal. The schedule was calculated based on a presumption that we continue with the same level of resources we have now, also that things take roughly the same time as they did for the AGP. * Learning from the AGP means we may move more quickly. * However, we have more code points to cover, a smaller team and related scripts. * Another factor that makes a big difference (4 months or so) is variants. Considerations in the use of the Latin script advised against our recognizing them, but cross-script variants (e.g. A, K, T, etc. with Russian) may need to be recognized and there are some possible candidates (LATIN SMALL LETTER A and LATIN SMALL LETTER ALPHA come to mind) for in-script variants. In summary, the current schedule is probably too relaxed, especially if we can get more help or we don't need to recognize variants. Regards, Chris. -- Research Associate in Linguistic Computing, Centre for Digital Humanities, UCL, Gower St, London WC1E 6BT Tel +44 20 7679 1599 (int 31599) www.ucl.ac.uk/dis/people/chrisdillon<http://www.ucl.ac.uk/dis/people/chrisdillon>

Version 6 or Latin part of MSR2
by Dillon, Chris Dec. 15, 2015

Dec. 15, 2015

Dear colleagues, Please find attached version 6 of the Latin part of MSR2. The major changes are: * Mert Saka's notes on Turkish (many thanks!) * Other changes we agreed in our last meeting on Dec. 8. According to the work schedule, we won't come back to this for some time, but if you have edits, let me know and I'll release a new version every now and then. It will save us work at a later stage.

Clarification
by Dillon, Chris Dec. 15, 2015

Dec. 15, 2015

Dear colleagues, I now know that I completely misunderstood yesterday's email. I thought it was about the panel formation proposal. Actually it was about the work schedule. I've had a horrible head cold and I guess I wasn't picking up detail. Anyway, this means that there is no longer a hurry over the things I asked for earlier. On the other hand, if any of you were to send me them now, I wouldn't say no, as they will be needed fairly soon (and I've even attached the right file this time). Apologies for the confusion and wishing you good holidays, Chris. -- Research Associate in Linguistic Computing, Centre for Digital Humanities, UCL, Gower St, London WC1E 6BT Tel +44 20 7679 1599 (int 31599) www.ucl.ac.uk/dis/people/chrisdillon<http://www.ucl.ac.uk/dis/people/chrisdillon>
