Explanation:The
IDNC Working Group (IDNC WG) is currently working
to develop and report on feasible methods that
would enable the timely and efficient ("fast
track") introduction of a limited number
of non-contentious IDN ccTLDs, while an overall
long-term IDN ccTLD policy is being developed.
The IDNC WG has created a Draft Final Report
designed to highlight the latest topics and
issues that need to be considered in developing
(1) a mechanism for the selection of the IDN
ccTLD string and (2) a mechanism to designate
an IDN ccTLD manager. The draft document is
being made publicly available at this time
solely to alert the community to the latest
IDNC WG thinking and to facilitate further
discussions at the ICANN Paris meeting later
this month. This document has not been signed
off by the IDNC Working Group whose members
will continue to provide their own comments
and input. The IDNC WG will conduct a meeting
in Paris during the ICANN meeting.
The Draft Final Report is available here: http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/idn-cctld-fast-track-draft-final-report-recommendations-13jun08.pdf [PDF,

Comments on the draft document are welcome via
email at idn-cctld-fast-track@icann.org.
To be considered by the IDNC WG in Paris, any
comments should be submitted by 23 June 2008.
An archive of all comments received will be publicly
posted at http://forum.icann.org/lists/idn-cctld-fast-track/. |
