Your input on the proposed process and the principles that support it are more than welcome: http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/lgr-procedure-24sep12-en.htm Regards, __ Francisco Arias gTLD Registry Technical Liaison ICANN On 9/25/12 10:40 AM, "ICANN News Alert" <communications(a)icann.org<mailto:communications@icann.org>> wrote: News Alert http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-3-24sep12-en.htm ________________________________ IDN Variant TLD Program – Procedure to Develop and Maintain the Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone in Respect of IDNA Labels 24 September 2012 Forum Announcement: Comment Period Opens on Date: 24 September 2012 Categories/Tags: Top-Level Domains Purpose (Brief): The Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Variant TLD Program deals with the variant form of top-level domain (TLD) names in different scripts. To enable IDN Variant TLDs in the root, it is necessary to establish the Label Generation Rules (LGR) for the DNS Root Zone. The Label Generation Rules Process is a way to develop and maintain the Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone in respect of IDNA labels. The process must be in place to enable the delegation and management of IDN Variant TLDs. The Label Generation Rules (LGR) Process project team, consisting of global volunteers with expert consultants and ICANN staff, has produced the first public draft of the LGR Process document. The team now seeks community input on the proposed process and the principles that support it. The Label Generation Rules (LGR) Process document will be discussed at a public session at the ICANN meeting in Toronto in October 2012. The session schedule will be available at ICANN Toronto Meeting Website<http://toronto45.icann.org/full-schedule>. Comments received in this Public Comment period as well as community feedback during the Toronto meeting will be incorporated into the final draft and published for second round of Public Comment in November 2012.
