Some findings on the level of acceptance of IDNs - particularly in Arabic
Hi Everyone, These presentations were forwarded from a conference session in Dubai on 1-2 April 2015. One is a presentation from ICANN on the IDN program and the other is some research on the compatibility of Arabic IDNs with various Internet applications. They reinforce the need for more work on universal acceptance, especially the report by Raed Alfayez of SaudiNIC. While I can get a lot of the problem and specific work from the slides, do we think it'd be good to have Raed present this material (or are these results already well known)? Regards Kurt
Kurt: SaudiNic has put a huge amount of effort into the development of an evaluation methodology. They presented preliminary results at the APTLD meeting in Oman last year and later in the year publsihed their paper on the specific methodology. I think this will be a good paper for the Monitoring and Measurement Project Group to look at. Another good source is the EurID/UNESCO report on IDNs.

The SaudiNic reports can be found via the ICANN "universalacceptance" page: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/universal-acceptance-2012-02-25-en#ar chive in the last table (Non-ICANN Resources). The links work as of writing this. On 4/15/15, 21:10, "Don Hollander" <don.hollander@icann.org> wrote:
