[PC-NCSG] [council] For your action: GNSO appointees to the new IDN Guidelines Working Group

[Amr Elsadr]

Hi,

I?ve contacted Chris to gauge his interest in this project, and he expressed enthusiasm in working on reviewing the IDN guidelines. I?ll suggest him as a candidate to the council.

Thanks.

Amr

>> Following from the discussion with Sarmad Hussein at the Buenos Aires meeting, please be informed that the IDN project team has now issued a Call for Experts to join the new Working Group to review the IDN Guidelines: see https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-07-20-en. They are asking for three GNSO members to the WG, which must be endorsed by their respective SO/ACs ? and ideally applications should be sent in by 3 August.

As I explained in Buenos Aires, this WG was supposed to build on a list of issues identified by the GNSO and the ccNSO; unfortunately, although a small group of community volunteers was formed in February, there has been no discussion or input provided by that group (which has been dormant).
