Una cuestión importante se refiere a "variantes" que se producen cuando un único personaje puede ser identificado con dos o más puntos de código diferentes Unicode con representaciones gráficas que pueden o no estar visualmente similares.IDN variantes contienen uno o más caracteres tales y por lo tanto, si no se manejan correctamente, puede dar lugar a confusión en el usuario o una experiencia de usuario pobre. En un esfuerzo por desarrollar soluciones potenciales para la delegación de IDN variantes de dominios de nivel superior (TLD), de IDN Equipos de Proyecto variante, que consiste en voluntarios, sin perjuicio de consultores expertos y el personal de ICANN materia, tienen llevado a cabo estudios de casos en seis secuencias de comandos, produjo un informe integrado, y se está llevando a cabo para completar tres proyectos de investigaciÃ³n potencial soluciones para la Variante IDN TLDs delegaciÃ³n. Uno de estos proyectos se llama el examen de la experiencia del usuario Implicaciones de la variante activa Proyecto TLDs (P6). El propÃ³sito del proyecto es obtener una comprensiÃ³n de los problemas que podrÃan derivarse de la activaciÃ³n de IDN Variantes de TLD y ofrecer recomendaciones a los usuarios para evitar estos problemas. Ejemplos de funciones de usuario que se han identificado incluyen solicitantes de registro, registradores, los operadores de registro, administradores de sistemas, operadores de redes, los desarrolladores de aplicaciones y los usuarios finales. El equipo del proyecto ha publicado para comentarios pÃºblicos el borrador del informe final para Examinar las implicaciones experiencia del usuario de variantes de TLD activos <http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/variant-ux-18jan13-en.htm> y estÃ¡ tratando de establecer un diÃ¡logo con la comunidad para refinar propuesto principios, impactos y recomendaciones del estudio. Este seminario se ofrece como complemento de este proceso, tanto por la presentaciÃ³n de la conceptos claves y entradas del usuario recolecciÃ³n. La Variante IDN TLDs equipo del Programa estÃ¡ a la espera de su participaciÃ³n. --------------- Saludos, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Matt Ashtiani, Gisela Gruber, Nathalie Peregrino y Charvolen Julia El personal de ICANN PolÃtica en apoyo de ALAC E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org Un mundo, una Internet _______________________________________________ [[--Original text (en) http://mm.icann.org/transbot_archive/a6e091e863.html --]]

RV: [At-Large] ALAC & At-Large involvement in GNSO activities

This is my seventh year as the ALAC Liaison to the GNSO. It has always been a challenge, and has at times been exciting, frustrating, productive, discouraging and often satisfying. And I have learnt far more on so many levels than I could even start to recount here. I take some pride at having initiated two PDPs on behalf of the ALAC, and seen them through to create new ICANN policy. One, domain tasting, was so successful at killing a distasteful practice that most people no longer even remember what it was. The other on post-expiration registrant rights was successful in that the resultant policy gives registrants some rights to renew gTLD accidentally expired domains where they previously had no rights at all, but the results were not quite at the level that we had hoped for, to some extent due to the limited involvement of At-Large throughout the process. I, along with Cheryl when her busy schedule has allowed, have been regular participants in quite a number of GNSO activities, both policy and administrative. Others such as Evan and Carlton have made their voices heard as well, and more recently we have seen a few others start to participate. This note is prompted by a number of issues. First, it hopefully will come as no surprise that I do not intend to hold the role of ALAC Liaison to the GNSO for Life. It is therefore increasingly important to have more people knowledgeable about the GNSO and active in its activities, so that when a new Liaison is required, the ALAC will have good options for my replacement. Second, for several years, the GNSO spent far more time than perhaps it should have on its re-organization and reformulation of all of its procedures and methodologies. These changes were mandated by the Board and the GNSO had little choice but to carry out the re-org, but that has now largely been completed. What was a slow trickle of policy work when the focus was on administration is now becoming a flood. There are currently several PDPs active and more coming down the pipe (I am participating in three of them, and I am a vice-chair of one). In addition, the GNSO is under increasing pressure to develop policy through other means, and neither the community nor the Board is comfortable with policy development taking years. The net effect is that the work going on at any time is growing, and there is pressure to get the work done faster. If At-Large is to be able to influence these efforts, it MUST get involved from the very start. And it will take a lot more than one or two people. Issuing comments and advice at the end of the process is simply not going to allow us to properly influence policy outcomes. Lastly, the overall character of many discussions in ICANN is changing. When I started, the "public interest" was a phrase that showed up in an obscure way in the ICANN Bylaws and was rarely mentioned. Users who did not register domain names were generally not considered to be a factor in decisions. With increased ALAC visibility and the Affirmation of Commitment, that has changed. A lot! As the one part of ICANN to have the interest of the billions of Internet users as its core mission, ALAC and At-Large have an opportunity to help drive ICANN in a direction that indeed serves the public interest. But we can only do that if we are actively and intensely involved in activities outside of our little corner of ICANN. We need to be out there, participating and helping to formulate the policies that we believe WILL benefit the public interest and Internet users. And we need to have the credibility so that when we do engage, people listen. I will soon put together a list of ongoing GNSO activities as well as those that may be starting soon. For a few ongoing activities, it is probably too late for new people to get involved. For others, getting involved now will be an interesting learning experience. And as new projects start up, there will be lots of new opportunities. I am prepared to work with anyone who has a true interest in becoming active in GNSO policy activities. Some of these topics are complex and will take work to understand and eventually to contribute. Others will be far easier. But in all cases, helping to formulate GOOD policy will be both satisfying and productive.

[[--Translated text (en -> es)--]] Asunto: Re: Nuevo programa de gTLD resolución del Comité sobre "cerradas" cuerdas genéricos De: carlton.samuels(a)gmail.com + + +1 A la totalidad del lote, las razones y el análisis en conjunto. Su forma más que un 'cerrado' cadena y sus implicaciones. Porque a menos que y hasta que uno está dispuesto a repudiar toda la empresa ICANN, que es decir que arrasar hasta los cimientos, es una ofensa a la razón para esperar objeción a una cadena genérica - Me gusta la definición de Christopher de eso! - ponerse de pie. El barco ha navegado. ICANN existencia entera descansa sobre la monetización de común cadenas. ¿Por qué, porque han significado imputado, y, por extensión, acretan valor. Evan dice bien, una cadena, una palabra común, se hace bien mueble. Alquimia, por así decirlo! Así que mientras que puede ser filosóficamente opuesto a la idea de que el público y la propiedad comunal es expropiada para el beneficio privado, desconfío de tomar la Don Quijote papel aquí. Si no puede demostrar daño o fuera de la ley en una palabra común en el 2 º nivel. Y si no se puede iniciar la sesión en la restitución y la reparación integral del agravio no puedo en razón a ver esta abrazado en el nivel superior. Dado que no conocemos los modelos de negocio que han de ser adoptadas por estos los llamados registros cerrados cuerda, estoy en desventaja en la determinación de daño, si los hay. Y suponiendo que se pudiera encontrar alguna, yo probablemente consideraría los contexto de los obstáculos que enfrentan decir un amante del gato normal la compra de un dominio en el Registro de gato. y que deseen utilizarlo para la mayor gloria de algunos puss altivos. Todo hombre tiene derecho a su veneno. Diablos, que sÃ³lo podrÃa es una manifestaciÃ³n de uno de ellos amantes de gato fetiches como el antiguo Egipcios! Dime rÃ¡pido, Â¿por quÃ© esa intenciÃ³n se desmintiÃ³ o desposeÃdos? Vamos a tener la conversaciÃ³n. Pero seamos claros.
