<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Some context: </span>ICANN org worked with the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Script Generation Panels (CJK GPs) to seek their guidance on string similarity concerns for single character IDN gTLD applications in the Han
script. The CJK GPs agreed that the work already done in the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGRs) sufficiently addresses the technical and linguistic concerns around string similarity for single character IDN TLDs. Feedback is requested on the <a href="https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/proposed-han-script-single-character-gtld-considerations-27jun24-en.pdf" title="https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/proposed-han-script-single-character-gtld-considerations-27jun24-en.pdf">Proposed
