Response on Single Character IDN TLDs [RE: [jig] JIG MP3 8 November 2011]

["Edmon Chung" <edmon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

 

Thanks for all the quick and constructive comments on the matter.

 

Please find attached revised letter incorporating the comments:

 

1. single-syllable-single-word, yes, the idea is to point out the inequity that 
such TLDs are acceptable for English (e.g. ".word") but not for some languages 
(e.g. Chinese single word TLDs). Hopefully the edits explained it better.

 

2. included that SSAC members were involved in the development of the report

 

3. included stronger wording for Board to act

 

4. explained where the board may have inadvertently tied the implementation for 
IDN ccTLDs and IDN gTLDs together and asked for clarification

 

5. included description to indicate that we received no objections from ACs

 

With regards to process, as discussed in Dakar, it is probably best to pass it 
to the respective councils, and upon the mutual resolution by the 2 councils, 
have the council chairs forward the letter to the board.

 

Please find also attached a draft motion for consideration by the councils.

 

We will also look to circulate this to the ccNSO and GNSO councils for their 
considerations.

 

Edmon
