Subject: [ssac-gnso-irdwg] Update: Final Report of the Internationalized
Registration Data Working Group


Dear members of IRD-WG, 

  Greetings. When the IRD-WG Final report was approved by the group in
March. It was sent to GNSO and to SSAC for review  and approval. As a
result, the SSAC provided a few comments, for your review and approval. 

  Most of these comments are to correct technical and other errors in
the document. The only substantive change is that the SSAC proposed an
additional recommendation: 

Recommendation 4: ICANN should take appropriate steps to require gTLD
registries and registrars andpersuade ccTLD registries and registrars to
support the following standards:
Domain Names - both A-label and U-label; nameserver Names- A-label, and
optionally U-label;
Telephone/fax- ITU-T E.123; Email- IETF EAI WG RFCs; Registration
Status- Exact EPP status where applicable; Dates - ISO 8601-2004. 

The rationale for this recommendation is that SSAC members asked: is
there a reason why standards agreed to in Section 4.2 are not part of
the final recommendations for action now?  For example, Nameserver,
Phone/fax, Dates, Registration Status are fields where it appears the WG
had consensus. By proposing recommendation 4, it made possible for
possible actions where the IRD-WG had consensus, without having to wait
for the translation and transliteration issue to resolve. 

Attached please find the report (REDLINE, clean version). 

We appreciate the IRD-WG members could review these changes and discuss
whether to approve them by May 9, 2012. If the IRD-WG feel there is a
need for a teleconference call, staff is happy to organize it. 

Kind regards, 
Steve
