[gnso-idn-wg] Giving credit and attention to prior work of local communities

[Steve Crocker <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just spoke about alternate roots and said they were not healthy for  
the Internet.  That said, I want to agree very strongly with the idea  
that ICANN -- and all of us -- should indeed pay attention and learn  
from the work that's been done in the local communities.

From my perspective, I am eager to learn about such work.  I expect  
there will be a mix of two things.  One is the effect being achieved  
to provide support to the users, and the other are specific  
implementation approaches.  We may learn that it's important to  
provide users with good ways of dealing with scripts but perhaps the  
implementations need to be modified to fit into the overall Internet.
