When distributing this report further, it is useful to highlight the context for those who may be unfamiliar with it, as follows: In November 2006, the ICANN GNSO Council launched an IDN Working Group. The group was tasked with 1) identifying and exploring policy issues that may arise in connection to the introduction of Internationalized Domain Names at the top-level (IDN TLDs), and 2) providing a report to the Council as background information for its deliberations on further steps to take regarding policy development for IDN at the top-level. For the Council's consideration, the IDN WG has identified a number of issue areas and collected views on these areas in an 'Outcomes Report,', attached and also soon available at <http://www.gnso.icann.org/issues/idn-tlds/>. This report will be discussed at the ICANN Lisbon meeting 26 - 30 March 2007 - both in conjunction with the work of the GNSO's New gTLD Committee and in cooperation with other Working Groups addressing IDN-related matters - before the GNSO Council considers what further policy work should be undertaken on IDNs as they relate to gTLDs. Very best regards Olof Attachment:
