> Dear Community:
>
> As some of you know, some time ago a draft Guide to Domain Names was
> prepared by an ICANN consultant with a view to having it published for the
> use of the individual Internet community worldwide.
>
> During the At-Large community meetings in New Delhi, it was decided that 
> the
> work of preparing the guide for publication should be concluded by 
> allowing
> members of the community to provide any comments, proposed edits, or
> thoughts for inclusion in the published text not later than 31 March 2008.
>
> I have attached the current draft of the text for you to review. We will
> have translated editions prepared of the final edition - unfortunately the
> cost of translating something that may (depending upon how many comments 
> and
> the nature of the comments) change a great deal makes translating the text
> now difficult.
>
> POINTS TO CONSIDER:
>
> 1) This is the raw text of the guide. The version to be published will be
> prepared in a desktop publishing environment to make it attractive and
> visually appealing. Of course, until the basic text is completed, it is 
> hard
> to decide precisely how to format the guide in a DTP application - that's
> why we are having it done
>
> 2) It has been suggested that some graphics would be useful. This of 
> course
> is entirely sensible. If you have ideas for what these should be, please 
> let
> us know. You do not have to be very specific - something like the 
> following
> would work: "Put in a pie chart showing the total number of registered
> domains in all gTLDs, broken down by gTLD"
>
> 3) Is there something which could be included that would be specific for
> your region of the world? Let us know - there's no problem with producing
> regionally-specific versions of the guide, if you think that would be more
> useful.
>
> 4) Revision tracking is turned on, so if you want to edit the text 
> directly
> and send that to us, feel free. Equally, you can just send us narrative
> suggestions - please remember though that we need enough specificity to be
> able to understand what to change. If your comment is extremely general,
> that will make it difficult to know what we should change. If we are 
> unsure
> of what you mean, we will reply and ask you for more details.
