Text
Whereas, the introduction of Internationalised Top-Level Domain Names is considered a priority by ICANN;
Whereas, the IANA Root Zone Procedures for Test IDN Deployment paper is considered an important component of enabling evaluation and testing prior to deployment;
Whereas, significant consultation in the technical community and including a public posting with comment purpose has taken place with no significant recommendation for change received;
Whereas, the IDN TLD Root Server Performance/Tolerance paper has undergone the same review as the IANA procedure and its finalisation is anticipated in conjunction with the root server operators;
Resolved (07.47), the Board accepts the IANA Root Zone Procedures for Evaluating IDN Deployment, and directs staff to implement this in accordance with the contract for IANA performance and IANA's procedures.
Resolved (07.48), the Board considers the root-server operators' participation an important component of the further plans for IDN evaluations and directs staff to receive and implement recommendations received from the RSSAC at their 22 July 2007 meeting.
