Comments on Reference LGRs for the Second Level

[HiroHOTTA <hotta@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Some questions :

(1) multiple languages/scripts consideration

  At the second level of a gTLD, the number of languages 
  expressing IDNs may be more than one. This means LGRs at the 
  second level should take multiple languages/scripts into 
  consideration including the mutual consistency. Is this aspect 
  incorporated in the suggested process?

(2) relationship with RootLGR

  Essentially it's natural for me to think that the issues are 
  pretty much similar to those in RootLGR projects. Thinking of 
  this, what's the relationship with RootLGR?

(3) the number of LGRs for one language/scripts

  How many kinds of IDN tables will be defined as a reference?
  For example, gTLDs with IDN table definition have already been 
  proposed and delegated and those IDN tables for the same 
  language/script may be different from each other. In that case, 
  are we going to converge them into one, or do we allow more 
  than one reference IDN tables for a single language/script?

(4) who will develop the reference IDN table

  Are gTLD registries with IDN tables expected to cooperate to come 
  up with a (compromised) result?
