[UA-discuss] Mixing between RTL and LTR scripts

[Zied BOUZIRI]

Hi
I think Yes , we share this expectation.
And this is what we work in the TF-AIDN :
https://www.icann.org/news/blog/making-progress-with-the-arabic-script-in-domain-names
TF-AIDN has 35 members hailing from 18 countries across the globe, from the the
(very big) Arabic-speaking world as you say  !
The members come from a variety of backgrounds  and cover a wide range of
Asian and African languages using the Arabic script.
Best regards
