IDN Variant TLD Program – Procedure to Develop and Maintain the Label
Generation Rules for the Root Zone in Respect of IDNA Labels

24 September 2012

Comment Period Opens on 24 September 2012

Categories/Tags:        Top-Level Domains

Purpose (Brief):

The Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Variant TLD Program deals with the
variant form of top-level domain (TLD) names in different scripts. To
enable IDN Variant TLDs in the root, it is necessary to establish the Label
Generation Rules (LGR) for the DNS Root Zone.

The Label Generation Rules Process is a way to develop and maintain the
Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone in respect of IDNA labels.

The process must be in place to enable the delegation and management of IDN
Variant TLDs. The Label Generation Rules (LGR) Process project team,
consisting of global volunteers with expert consultants and ICANN staff,
has produced the first public draft of the LGR Process document. The team
now seeks community input on the proposed process and the principles that
support it.

The Label Generation Rules (LGR) Process document will be discussed at a
public session at the ICANN meeting in Toronto in October 2012. The session
schedule will be available at ICANN Toronto Meeting Website (
http://toronto45.icann.org/full-schedule). Comments received in this Public
Comment period as well as community feedback during the Toronto meeting
will be incorporated into the final draft and published for second round of
Public Comment in November 2012.
