This PDP has been tasked by the GNSO Council to Group to address issues related to the potential need to translate and/or transliterate contact information data. As part of its deliberations on this issue, Charter stipulates several questions for the PDP WG to consider, including (but not limited to):


 *   Whether it is desirable to translate contact information to a single common language or transliterate contact information to a single common script.
 *   Who should decide who should bear the burden translating contact information to a single common language or transliterating contact information to a single common script.

For more detailed, consult the WG's Charter<http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/transliteration-contact-charter-06nov13-en.pdf>.
