Dear colleagues,
In the last few months, a member of the ICANN community raised concerns about risks inherent in the delegation of IDNs ? particularly IDN variant TLDs ? with emphasis on the risks of delegating IDN TLDs before the completion of ICANN?s ongoing IDN Variant TLD Project or wider experience of IDN deployment in other domains.
As part of its on-going work to assess risks and risk mitigation strategies, ICANN commissioned an expert study to evaluate these concerns within specific terms of reference.
The expert study identified ten risks, rated on probability of occurrence (high, medium, low and near zero), severity if it does happen (high, medium, low) and the type of risk represented (security and stability, user experience, and legal).
A key conclusion from the expert study is the following: ?None of these risks are very likely to come to pass, but some are moderately likely. All risks that have a high severity are of low risk of happening.?
The report is attached and also available on the ICANN IDN Variant TLD Program Reports <http://www.icann.org/en/resources/idn/variant-tlds/reports> page.
Best regards,
Naela Sarras Manager, IDN TLDs Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)
Dear Pascal, There is no public comment open on this paper. It was posted as a report summarizing work in the last few months. I suppose this mailing list is a good platform to start any comments or discussions on this topic as it was intended to be a platform to discuss IDN variant related issues. Thank you, Naela On 6/8/13 5:59 AM, "Pascal Bekono" <pbekono@gmail.com> wrote:
