Hi, It would be _really good_ if there were some attempt to quantify how often or even how the "synonym" identifiers that are created this way either succeed or fail. Has there been an attempt to measure this? Thanks, A On Wed, Aug 30, 2017 at 07:04:09AM +0530, Ajay DATA wrote:

This is a great step for IDNs and UA...and hopfully, a significant step forward in making the Internet available for millions who know no language other than their own. satish On Aug 30, 2017 7:56 AM, "Andrew Sullivan" <ajs@anvilwalrusden.com> wrote:

I wasn't trying to suggest otherwise. I was rather hoping that such a large deployment would be accompanied by some measurement, so that we can know how it succeeds and fails. Addressing failures is how we got most of what is the Internet today. It'd be a shame not to measure them in this case. A -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@anvilwalrusden.com
I totally agree on the need to measure and monitor progress. satish On Aug 30, 2017 8:09 AM, "Andrew Sullivan" <ajs@anvilwalrusden.com> wrote: On Wed, Aug 30, 2017 at 08:00:26AM +0530, Satish Babu wrote:

Andrew, What do you think would be good measures? Number of mailboxes created overtime? Proportion of mail going through each TLD? .in vs .bharat? Number of Messages? Size of Messages? Proportion of SPAM or other naughty content? Something else?

Not quite sure how to interpret the news article. Does it mean that each of the 5 million government personnel will have both a hindi and an english email address? If yes, will they both redirect to the same mailbox? Or is it too early to determine exactly what will happen? Is sarkar(dot)bharat in hindi = सरकार(dot)भारत ?
