[At-Large] [ALAC-Internal] IDN ccTLD

[Hong Xue]

Dear At-large Community,

At San Juan Meeting, the ICANN Board requests that that the ICANN community
including the ALAC provide the Board with responses to the published list of
issues and questions that need to be addressed in order to move forward with
IDN ccTLDs associated with the ISO 3166-1 two-letter codes in a manner that
ensures the continued security and stability of the Internet. The Board
requests status reports regarding progress by the conclusion of the ICANN
meeting in Los Angeles in October 2007.

The ALAC IDN Working Group, which was set up in May 2007 and charied by Hong
Xue, commenced drafting the status report from July 2007 and sent out the
first draft to the regional lists for public comments from August 2007. For
the Working Group working plan, please refer to
https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi?alac_idn_working_group.

Now, the Working Group has completed the second draft and is expecting your
comments or revisions. You're very welcome to post the comments on the
Working Group page at
https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi?alac_idn_working_group. The Working
Group is particularly looking forward to hearing from each RALO. The Public
Consultation is from September 9 to September 28, 2007.

For the background informaiton and relevant knowledge on IDNs, please refer

Best wishes

Hong
ALAC IDN Liaison
