The Procedures were approved by the ICANN Board at their San Juan meeting on
29 June 2007. The resolution reads as follows:

 

Resolved (07.___), the Board accepts the IANA Root Zone Procedures for
Evaluation IDN Deployment, and directs staff to implement this in accordance
with the contract for IANA performance and IANA's procedures. 

 

Resolved (07.___), the Board considers the root-server operators'
participation an important component of the further plans for IDN
evaluations and directs staff to receive and implement recommendations
received for the RSSAC at their 22 July 2007 meeting.

 

The full resolution can be found online at: http://www.icann.org/minutes/
and the final procedures and progress on the implementation will be
announced at http://www.icann.org/topics/idn 

 

As the resolution directs the procedures are approved by the ICANN Board and
staff will proceed with its implementations.
