For meeting today From: Mark Svancarek (CELA) Sent: Friday, November 22, 2019 2:39 PM To: ua-eai@icann.org Subject: Homework for next meeting - Item #7 Sarmad and Pitinan will have the meeting notes and recording posted to our WG site soon, but I wanted to get my work items out to the team before I depart for Internet Governance Forum (IGF2019) tomorrow. In our last meeting, we decided that we should work on #7 as a working group, rather than hiring someone else to do it. It will be fun! As a reminder, #7 reads: “Review, update and develop technical best practices and standards for the security and usability of EAI (e.g. dealing with homographs, script mixing, variant characters, right-to-left scripts, etc.)” But we have already decided that our WG will just work on the portions needed by mail admins when creating local-parts (also called “mailbox names”). To get ready for a quick start next meeting, please read or skim the following documents from the Developers site < https://uasg.tech/information/developers/ >. I am sorry that some are only available in English: Quick Guide to Email Address Internationalization (EAI)<https://uasg.tech/wp-content/uploads/documents/UASG014-en-digital.pdf> UASG 014 An introduction to EAI (Email Address Internationalization), and items for email software developers and email service providers to consider.
