[Rt4-whois] Fwd: ICANN News Alert -- IDN Variant TLD Program - Revised Program Plan

[Kathy Kleiman]

FYI - As the Compliance recommendations created changes before our final 
report, so too the IDN recommendations may be spurring faster and more 
responsive action. Congratulations to Sarmad, Michael and Wilfried!
Best,
Kathy

    IDN Variant TLD Program - Revised Program Plan

4 May 2012

*Forum Announcement:* 	Comment Period Opens on 	*Date:* 	4 May 2012
*Categories/Tags:* 	Top-Level Domains
*Purpose (Brief):* 	The purpose of this project is to resolve many of 
the issues necessary to delegate variant TLDs. The first IDN Variant 
Issues Project explored the issues associated with the potential 
inclusion of IDN variant TLDs in the DNS root zone, at the request of 
the ICANN Board and the community. The first two phases of the project 
have been completed with the publication of the final Integrated Issues 
Report on 20 February 2012 and the project is now entering its next 
phase. ICANN created a program plan for next steps, posted it for public 
comment, and presented it in a session at the ICANN meeting in Costa 
Rica in March 2012. Based on the comments received to date, the project 
plan has been updated, and the team is seeking input on the revised plan 
during this public comment period.
