Guidelines for Designing Script-Specific Label Generation Rules (LGR) for the 
Root Zone


27 April 2015

ICANN is releasing a set of documents that present an overview of the tasks of 
a Generation Panel as well as additional orientation and guidance. They 
include:

*	Guidelines 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Guidelines-for-LGR-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 359 KB] and Considerations 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Considerations-for-LGR-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 187 KB] for designing script-specific Label Generation Rules (LGR) for 
integration into the Root Zone,
*	A summary of the Requirements 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Requirements-for-LGR-Proposals-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 624 KB] on format and contents for submitting an LGR proposal.

The overview and guidelines are based on the prescription in the Procedure to 
Develop and Maintain Label Generation Rules (LGR) for the Root Zone With 
Respect to IDN Labels 
<https://www.icann.org/en/resources/idn/variant-tlds/lgr-procedure-20mar13-en.pdf> 
[PDF, 772 KB] (the Procedure); they do not supersede the Procedure as the 
authoritative definition of the process for developing and maintaining a label 
generation ruleset for the Root Zone. Instead, they intend to give practical 
guidance as well as a focused overview of the tasks involved in creating a 
single-script LGR for integration into the Root Zone LGR.

As the first Generations Panels have been formed and begun to take up their 
work under the Procedure, a number of issues have been raised that demanded 
further clarification as well as suggested the need for explanation of some of 
the provisions of the Procedure. To this end, the overview and guideline 
documents intend to provide a succinct summary of the tasks of a Generation 
Panel together with practical guidelines on how best to accomplish them. They 
are intended as adjunct to, and as help in, reading of the Procedure, which 
otherwise remains the authoritative description of the process.

The output of the work of a Generation Panel is a set of Label Generation 
Rules (LGR) for a given script (or multiple LGRs in case a panel works on more 
than one script). These are to be released for public comments and finally 
submitted to the Integration Panel for review and integration into the Root 
Zone LGR. In order to facilitate the review, the Integration Panel has 
released a document describing the expected format and organization of an LGR 
proposal and Generation Panels are expected to submit LGR proposals that 
adhere to these Requirements 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Requirements-for-LGR-Proposals-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 624 KB]. These include, in particular, further details on how to create 
a formal specification of an LGR using the XML Format for Representing Label 
Generation Rules.

Finally, the Guidelines 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Guidelines-for-LGR-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 359 KB] collect in one place a set of references to various technical 
documents that Generation Panels might need to consult in doing their work.

The guidelines and associated documents are:

*	Guidelines-for-LGR-20150424 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Guidelines-for-LGR-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 359 KB]
*	Considerations-for-LGR-20150424 
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/Considerations-for-LGR-20150424.pdf> 
[PDF, 187 KB]
*	Requirements-for-LGR-Proposals-20150424
