    •  Han Script Single Character IDN Generic Top-Level Domains CPWG
      • In preparation for the New gTLD Program: Next Round, 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 Proposed Considerations for the Application of Single Character IDN Generic Top-Level Domains based on the analysis and conclusions shared by the CJK GPs.

These improvements will streamline charter revisions and allow GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies to continue their focus on policy development.

    1. Minutes from the GNSO-TPR meeting on July 9, 2024

      The working group discussed updated recommentaions connected to the Phase 1a charter questions. Phase 1a has been out for Public comments and the document with the complete draft recommendations include updates from the public comment phase. There are some tuning of text due to recommendations set in Phase 1b and Phase 2 (not yet public commented).

      At-Large responded to the Phase 1a. In my view, no changes from At-Large are needed due to the updated recommendations for Phase 1a.

      Next meeting (July 16, 2024) will focus on Change of Registration Data (CORD). Please send comments to the proposed CORD policy to the mailing list or directly to me.
