Importance: High

 

Hi All,

 

Per our call last week, the WG needs to find agreement on two categories of variants for the National Society definitive list.  Each are detailed below.  Thomas, our Chair, will need to understand the positions within the WG, or another option is that if resolution cannot be found, that it can be highlighted within the public comment forum for additional guidance from the community.  If there is support in the WG to protect these variant identifiers, the WG will need to create a variant definition to compliment the variant principles within the Initial Report.

 

Please submit your comments, support, or objections to the list by Thursday 14 June 2018.

 

Attachments:

*	The latest version of the definitive list (note I made some additional changes that can be reviewed on the “change_log” tab)
*	An updated version of the variant principles document that is also a part of one of the proposed recommendations
*	Transcript of the WG call on 7 June

 

Issue #1:

“Red Cross” and/or “Red Crescent” requested as “standalone” terms in certain national (non-English) languages, in some cases with the definitive article “The”, or as “Red Cross Society” or “Red Crescent Society”(Cells highlighted in Yellow within the definitive list): 

*	Rationale - that is the name by which that society is known in that country (see email from Stephane Hankins on 30 April 2018 (https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-igo-ingo/2018-April/000131.html 

*	Also see P. 13 - 16 of the attached transcript for additional rationale from Stephane on the proposed protections of these identifiers.
