Chris,
Since our main recommendation is not to propose mandatory
transformation, would you please clarify if you are proposing a work
item for us?
Speaking for myself, given that I'm not in favor of mandatory
transformation I'd find it difficult to discuss who should bear the cost
of transformation. Since it's not part of the "system" then the only
possible answer is something or someone outside the system, which could
reasonably be characterized by the phrase "whoever benefits from the
transformation".
My question is, if we are to talk about who bears the cost, what is the
basis on which we could evaluate possible responses?

Dear colleagues,
Happy New Year!
As there have been no public comments so far, I would like to cancel our
meetings tomorrow (Jan. 8) and on Jan. 15, and have a webinar on Monday
19th at 15:00 UTC (tentative date/time).
The current agenda for the webinar is at the bottom of this email. You
are most welcome to make suggestions for improving it by 23:59 UTC
tomorrow Jan. 8.
Two other things:
*1. Face-to-face meeting in Singapore*
The current intention is to have a closed meeting, use Doodle to
maximize attendance and invite people from outside the WG.
*2. Charter question 2*
Especially if our main recommendation were to change to pro-mandatory
transformation, we would need a detailed answer to the second question
in our charter:
"Who should decide who should bear the burden [of] translating contact
information to a single common language or transliterating contact
information to a single common script."
Answers that have come up during our discussions have included:
- Registrants, registrars and/or registries
- Whoever benefits from the provision of a transformation service
More detailed suggestions are welcome and would be likely to strengthen
the case for mandatory transformation.
With all good wishes for 2015,
Regards,
Chris.
