15:06:23 From John McCormac - HosterStats.com to Everyone:
    Evening all. The final version of the Africa DNS Study report is to be published tomorrow night. Might be a potential topic for the next meeting.
15:07:07 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    It’s also part of the policy part
15:08:21 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:

    Exactly @ALAC-Justine Chew
15:16:31 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    @Alan Greenberg (ALAC) and @ALAC-Justine Chew thank you - clear
15:16:42 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    I don't object to a request for clarity if it helps the SPIRT Charter Drafting Team.
15:18:14 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Correct @Alan Greenberg (ALAC)
15:18:29 From Alan Greenberg (ALAC) to Everyone:
    @Justine, yes, we are trying to keep the charter very lean, so the clarity would have to come from the Framework.
15:18:33 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    Voting is by ALAC
15:18:54 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Reacted to Voting is by ALAC with "
15:20:13 From Alan Greenberg (ALAC) to Everyone:
    Voting is indeed by ALAC, but a majority of the ALAC is on this call and did not object.
15:21:46 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    +1 adding Alan as a penholder
15:22:08 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Yes to adding @Alan Greenberg (ALAC) as pen holder
15:22:36 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Yes more PC's to come
15:24:05 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    We will need discretion to liaise with ALAC directly since there is no time for CPWG review.
15:24:22 From Alan Greenberg (ALAC) to Everyone:
    Actually, Bill is taking the lead on String Similarity.

15:25:46 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    Thank you Bill
15:28:20 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    String similarity involves using characters from different scripts that visually resemble characters from another script. For example, using the Cyrillic letter "а" (U+0430) instead of the Latin letter "a" (U+0061)
15:28:50 From ALAC- Shah Rahman to Everyone:
    Reacted to "String similarity in..." with 
15:29:27 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    Those characters have different code points put are visually the same
15:31:00 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    String Similarity Review is about identifying strings that presents a probability of confusing similarity.
15:31:24 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    So, this is highly relevant to individual end users

    aren't all HTML links underlined in Web pages?
15:33:25 From Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond to Everyone:
    I mean those ones that show as HTML code
15:33:53 From Alan Greenberg (ALAC) to Everyone:
    @Olivier, yes, in most browsers
15:33:54 From ALAC-Tommi Karttaavi to Everyone:
    Some letters with accents are actually alphabet letters in some languages (like ö and ä in Finnish and Swedish) and there are double L and double R in Spanish…
15:33:57 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    This is also directly linked to the policy recommendations in the EPDP on IDNs to do with String Similarity for variants. Policy recommendations that the ALAC reps on that EPDP worked hard to include.
15:34:00 From John McCormac - HosterStats.com to Everyone:
    The underlining on URLs can be turned off in CSS.
15:34:06 From Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond to Everyone:
    in some pages and some browsers
15:34:10 From Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond to Everyone:
    not all pages yes
15:34:40 From John McCormac - HosterStats.com to Everyone:
    It can be an option for web developers and it is often used. The browser will render the link without an underline.
15:36:44 From ALAC-Justine Chew to Everyone:
    Thanks Alan

    +1 Allan thank you for inviting us all to read the document
15:38:40 From Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond to Everyone:
    I will read it - I wiII read it see the difference between l and I :-)
15:38:53 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone:
    @Bill Jouris Many thanks. Suggestion: Ref: RFC 2606 and RFC 6761, a number of domains such as example.com and example.org are maintained for documentation purposes. In my experience, it has been useful to use such domain names for documentation to illustration some of the points you have highlighted. - Dr. T V Gopal, Anna University, Chennai, INDIA
15:39:19 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:

    Bengali script which is very similar to Devanagari, and is used to write several other languages including Assamese which is closely related to Bengali. for example
15:40:10 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    @ALAC-Justine Chew thank you for being with us today at this very difficult time for you
15:48:05 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    Looks good to me
15:51:47 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    @Cheryl Langdon-Orr noted
15:53:43 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone:
    @Bill Jouris: Suggestion: https://unicode.org/reports/tr39/#Confusable_Detection has been very useful for me. It is very algorithmic. Also, Automatic Language Recognition methods are helpful in strings that are really domain names. I am taking a break on these approaches in Indic scripts hoping to come back fresh. - Dr. T V Gopal, Anna University, Chennai, INDIA
15:54:22 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    +1 Jonathan we were afraid of gaming that we ended up with a program not for for the purpose and no people making use of it
15:54:34 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    Not fir
15:54:37 From hadia Elminiawi to Everyone:
    fit
15:55:58 From ALAC-Bill Jouris to Everyone:
    @Gopal, I am impressed if you have managed to figure out what their intended algorithm is.  I was lost.  As a result, we are also suggesting that the next revision of the document provide more details on  how the calculations will work.
15:57:59 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Replying to "+1 Jonathan we were ..." 
    
     Indeed
15:59:23 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone:
    @ALAC-Bill Jouris I will get back on the algorithm soon. Thank you for the opportunity. - Dr. T V Gopal, Anna University, Chennai, INDIA
