[gnso-contactinfo-pdp-wg] Translation and transliteration study published

Tue Jun 3 23:34:37 UTC 2014

Dear TNT PDP Working Group,

  I would like to bring to your attention to a recent published report
evaluating solutions for the submission and display of internationalized
Contact Data. Specifically the study addresses the following areas:

* The accuracy implications for transforming internationalized contact data.
The study explored tools for (i) transliterating internationalized contact
information to ASCII, (ii) translating internationalized contact information
to English, (iii) transcribing internationalized contact information to
ASCII, or (iv) a combination of these techniques.
* Current Practices for handling internationalized contact data. The study
report describes the practices of:
> 1. Electronic merchants and online service providers in other industries, who
> often accommodate submission or display of their content in multiple
> languages. The  study examines how their websites handle internationalized
> contact information.
> 2. Domain name registries and registrars, who currently operate in geographies
> where local languages require use of character sets beyond ASCII in Latin or
> non-Latin writing systems. The study surveyed the submission and display
> practices of internationalized registration contact information for such
> registries and registrars.
* Limitations of technical protocols to handle internationalized contact
data. The study looked at what constraints current relevant protocols may
also place on submission, storage, transmission and display of such data by
registries and registrars.

 The study and its public comment is available here:

  We hope this would be useful for the TNT working group as you deliberate
in this area. We are also happy to provide a briefing to you in London.

Kind regards, 
Steve
