Brief Overview:
Recommendations for managing Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) variant
labels for top level domains (TLDs) have been developed by ICANN organization.
The relevant materials along with these proposed recommendations are being
published to seek community feedback.
The community has identified a need for IDN variant TLDs; however, the ICANN
Board resolved on 25 September 2010 that "no variants of gTLDs will be
delegated ... until appropriate variant management solutions are developed."
Subsequent work by ICANN organization and the community led to the
identification of two issues: (i) there is no accepted definition for variant
TLDs, and (ii) there is no 'variant management' mechanism for TLDs.
For the first issue, the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGR) Procedure
was developed with the support of the community and adopted by the ICANN Board
on 11 April 2013 for implementation. The Procedure has been implemented and
RZ-LGR has been developed for six scripts, and other scripts are being added
as their proposals are finalized by the relevant script communities.
For the second issue, ICANN organization has undertaken a detailed examination
to propose a set of recommendations for variant management mechanisms for
TLDs, which will be finalized based on the community input. The finalized
recommendations will be presented to the ICANN Board, anticipated in March
2019. At that time, the ICANN Board will be requested to consider these
recommendations to allow for implementing IDN variant TLDs.
