[UA-discuss] Call for UASG letter

[Ram Mohan]

Nice job Christian with the public forum intervention regarding the UASG
effort.



Here is a transcript of what Steve Crocker, ICANN Board Chair said in
response:

Yeah, thanks.  This is a great effort.  Although it is unintended, it's
actually two meanings to that.  This is a very important effort, and it is
extremely positive step that this has been formed.  And we're quite excited
about  it.

It's been a nagging problem from the earliest days when the first new tlds
that were more than three characters, although they were all in ASCII added
and now we are in a more complicated world in idns.  It is also a great
effort in that it will take a great amount of effort over a long period of
time.  And I think we all need to understand that this is not a one-shot,
get in there and fix it quickly sort of thing.  But a campaign that has to
be waged continuously engaging a variety of vendors and a variety of
implementers and users and enterprises, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.



And so it's an important element and one that I think will take multiple
parties but certainly from the ICANN perspective, we will do everything we
can to foster it and support it.
