Friends, During the ICANN63 we had one specific session between Latin GP and IP, but there have more IDN sessions where comments relevant to our work has come up. 1. IP wants us to create cross-script variants with all code points in different scripts that has identical or visually similar to LATIN SMALL LETTER O. IP gave the following list in their presentation today: Code Glyph Name 006F o LATIN SMALL LETTER O 03BF ο GREEK SMALL LETTER OMICRON 043E о CYRILLIC SMALLER LETTER O 0585 օ ARMENIAN SMALL LETTER OH 0B20 ଠ ORIYA LETTER TTHA 0D20 ഠ MALAYALAM LETTER TTHA 101D ဝ MYANMAR LETTER WA IP that a GP has the responsibility to look at other GP's proposals, both completed and work-in-progress, for obvious cases of visual similarity. 2. Besides the "ring" above, they want us to look for the straight line, i.e. l like. 3. IP suggests that we include cases of visually similarity that we have decided to reject in an appendix of two reasons: Firstly to show the reader that we have considered the case, but decided not to included it as variant. In that way we might get less questions during public comment if the we have looked at certain pair. Secondly to give data for others, such as for a 2nd level IDN table creation. I know that we have decided to do it, but I just want to emphasize that it came up. 4. I feel that there is more understanding on creating variants on visual similarity rather than strict homoglyphs. Other GP propose such in-script variants. Mats --- Mats Dufberg DNS Specialist, IIS Mobile: +46 73 065 3899 https://www.iis.se/en/
