Maximal Starting Repertoire Version 5 (MSR-5) for Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGR)

ICANN is releasing for public comment version 5 of the Maximal Starting Repertoire (MSR-5: HTML, XML). This version is upwardly compatible with MSR-4 adding one code point each to Latin script and Devanagari script repertoire, and adding two code points to the repertoire of Arabic script. MSR-5 also changes the Unicode base version from 6.3 to 11.0. Under the Procedure to Develop and Maintain Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone with Respect to IDN Labels, the MSR is the starting point for the work by community based Generation Panels developing the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGR) proposals for relevant scripts. The contents of MSR-5 and the detailed rationale behind its development are described in MSR-5 Overview and Rationale document.
