Dear all,
We have some work to do:
They wrote us on behalf of the GNSO IDNs EPDP Working Group (WG) that is
tasked with
providing the GNSO Council with policy recommendations on: 1) the
definition of gTLDs and the
management of variant labels; and 2) how the IDN Implementation Guidelines,
which Contracted
Parties are required to comply with, should be updated in the future.
The scope of work is defined in a series of questions contained in the IDNs
EPDP Charter and the WG
is seeking input on these questions that are organized under the following
seven topic areas:
A. Consistent definition and technical utilization of RZ-LGR
B. “Same entity” at the top-level
C. “Same entity” at the second-level
D. Adjustments in registry agreement, registry service, registry transition
process, and other
processes/procedures related to the domain name lifecycle
E. Adjustments to objection process, string similarity review, string
contention resolution,
reserved strings, and other policies and procedures
F. Adjustments in registration dispute resolution procedures and trademark
protection
mechanisms
G. Process to update the IDN Implementation Guidelines
*The questions are expressed more thoroughly, with background information
in the attachment of the forwarded message.*
Please raise any of the issues you encounter while going through the
document and we can discuss those together.
Thanks,
-Raoul
