> *Original Paragraph:6.2 Language: All languages should be possible to be
> represented in ICANN for the organization to position itself as a fully
> global multi-stakeholder entity. There is a need to improve the balance
> between the seven official languages at ICANN: Arabic, Chinese, English,
> French, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. However, ICANN manages the IANA
> functions that offer IDN services to entities who do not use any of the
> seven official languages that ICANN supports, and it is especially
> important that ICANN improves its communication with this group of
> stakeholders so that they can be better engaged.Proposed New Paragraph:6.2
> Language: In an ideal world, ICANN should accommodate participation by
> individuals who speak any language for the organization to position itself
> as a fully global multi-stakeholder entity. In reality, the ability to
> support participation by individuals who speak the seven official United
> Nations languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Portuguese, Russian
> and Spanish) should be deemed to be the minimum requirement. Better balance
> in providing support for some of these languages is desirable. Furthermore,
> as more IDN TLDs are delegated, it is important for ICANN to support
> services to entities associated with those languages outside these seven
> official languages and to improve its communication with this group of
> stakeholders so that they can be better engaged.*
