Re: [UA-comms] UA case studies in 2021

Ajay, Maria: Many thanks for your positive and helpful responses. I want to be clear that I am proposing case studies aimed at a particular niche: localisation service providers; and a particular venue: the LocWorld conference. To be effective, the case study should be about a company that has a product or service which they localise, and for which they decide to use globally inclusive domain names and email addresses, instead of Latin limited. Thus I think the "EAI case studies" of email providers like Datamail, Coremail, Apple, and Microsoft don't apply. There, the EAI service is the actual product, not a means for better localisation. Nor would a case study of an organisation like the Rajastan government, which adopts EAI and international domain names for their own use, be on target. Maybe the Indian Drivers Licence office, which could have used Latin limited domain names and email addresses, but chose to use globally inclusive domain names and email addresses, might apply, But perhaps this office did not use a localisation service provider. The most effective case study for the localisation industry will be a case study which involves a client company localising their product, and a localisation service provider, and a choice to use globally inclusive domain names and email addresses. That is the kind of case which I am suggesting.

UA case studies in 2021
by Maria Kolesnikova March 31, 2021

March 31, 2021

Dear UA Communications WG Members, UA Local Initiatives Leads and UA Coordination Team, The Universal Acceptance (UA) case studies are an important tool to showcase the successful implementations or EAI and UA readiness by the different stakeholders. The UASG regularly publishes case studies that highlight the lessons learned and best practices adopted to resolve the UA issues. In 2021 we would like to ask for you to help identify any relevant stakeholders or organizations that can be featured in the coming case studies in the below categories: 1. An Organization or Business EAI or UA successful implementation Entities that updated their systems to become UA ready or supported EAI. 2. The role of Governments in supporting UA readiness An initiative or campaign lead by a Government agency that supported UA readiness or EAI support. 3. Registry system UA/EAI support A domain registry or a registrar that updated their systems to become UA ready and support EAI. Please share with us your suggestions in the nearest two-three weeks. We're looking forward to working with you to showcase those stories!

UA Community blogs
by Maria Kolesnikova March 1, 2021

March 1, 2021

Dear UASG Communications WG Members, We know many of you currently write blogs as UASG community members on your own channels. This is a fantastic way to show your alignment with the organization and increase visibility of Universal Acceptance topics among your communities. That said, as part of our editorial process for members who write on behalf of the UA community or UASG, we ask that you let us know when you’re working on a blog so we can preview the content before it’s published to ensure it aligns with messaging and positioning for the group. This also allows us to determine how we can best amplify your content through our UASG channels. If you are working on any upcoming blog posts, please share them with me (masha(a)cctld.ru <mailto:masha@cctld.ru> ) and copy Jane Sexton (jane.sexton(a)icann.org <mailto:jane.sexton@icann.org> ) before they’re published and we’ll quickly preview the content. Please let us know if you have any questions. We’re looking forward to working with you to amplify your efforts! ==================================== Follow UASG Twitter <https://twitter.com/UASGTech> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/uasgtech> | Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsZQcTPv4Q2TRdx4w7V1ouw> | Linkedin <https://www.linkedin.com/company/uasgtech> ==================================== Warm wishes, Maria Kolesnikova Chair, UASG Communications Working Group <mailto:маша@кц.рф> маша(a)xn--j1ay.xn--p1ai | <mailto:masha@cctld.ru> masha(a)cctld.ru | +7 916 8357605 | skype: maria.sergeevna
