by Don Hollander Nov. 15, 2016

Nov. 15, 2016

Dear all: There have been some updates to the UA Wiki page over the past couple of days: In the Documents tab, we have added: UASG005 - Quick Guides in Chinese, Arabic and Russian UASG009 - Quick Guide to Tender and Contractual Documents At the bottom of this same page we have also added a Registry of Interests for those in the Coordination Group - so that there is transparency of potential vested interests when we contract out work.

UASG002 - Website Administrator Outreach Note TRANSLATIONS - Request for help, please
by Don Hollander July 26, 2016

July 26, 2016

Dear all: The revised UASG002 has been out for a week now. Besides the supporting comments, there was one comment that suggested those doing work on behalf of the UASG should use a more structured and advanced text. We’ll work on that. In the meantime, I would very much appreciate it if those of you who are bi- or multi-lingual could apply your skills to translate the following: ---- English Dear Website Administrator, I tried to create an account using my email address: xxxxx(a)xxxxx.xxxxx. Your site does not accept it and I’m reaching out to you to please look into and fix this issue. I found more information on new domain names and email addresses at www.uasg.tech <http://www.uasg.tech/>. You might find the information there helpful as you work to fix this problem. Thank you. —— Here’s the link for adding your own translations. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DeofaHmtntEgeU1wJPZceiRVUcbaSDMDPMxq18r… <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DeofaHmtntEgeU1wJPZceiRVUcbaSDMDPMxq18r…> Last time we did this we got 7 languages. This time, with more than 200 subscribers to the UA-Discuss list, I hope that we can get more. Here are some suggestions. Afrikaans Arabic French Gaelic German Hebrew Hindi Italian Maori Persian Portuguese Russian Serbian Spanish Tongan Welsh Thanks. Don

Sample report on UA @ Helsinki
by Don Hollander June 30, 2016

June 30, 2016

For those of you preparing meeting reports, I suggest something along the following: I’ll produce a more fulsome report, but I thought you might find this useful for your own trip reports. ---- Universal Acceptance Quite significant work has occurred since the Marrakech meeting by the Universal Acceptance Steering Group (now at www.uasg.tech <http://www.uasg.tech/>). They now have their Quick Guide published in 8 different languages with at least another three languages expected by November. Their 40 page Introduction to Universal Acceptance has been published and is being used. The start of a review of programming languages is running late, but extensive work is still expected by the end of the year. During the UASG meeting a review of their proposed communications plan was discussed and this will be finalised between now and the end of August with actual outreach efforts starting from July. There were also several reminders that members of the ICANN communities should make sure that their own systems are UA Ready. The relationship between Unicode and IDNA versions is on the radar as is the production of a white paper to look at the social, cultural and economic value of early UA work. Full copies of the slides, transcript and video recording of the meeting are on their website. —— Don

Hello Don, Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback. Here are some comments from my part. Best, Dennis On 6/17/16, 2:47 AM, "Don Hollander" <ua-discuss-bounces(a)icann.org on behalf of don.hollander(a)icann.org> wrote: Earlier this year the UASG engaged Edelman, a global Communications & PR company, to help us develop and deliver our messing. The attached is the part of the work that they’ve produced in conjunction with some members from the Community Outreach Project Group. We’re keen to get a wider part of the community to provide comment and, if available, specific details. The next products we’re expecting from the exercise are: - Activities - Social Media Strategy. - FAQ - and Rude Questions - and answers to each. I expect that we’ll spend some time on this at the UASG Meeting in Helsinki (Monday, 13:30 local Helsinki time) Don

June 24, 2016

Dear all, The UASG will be holding its meeting in Helsinki in cooperation with the GNSO. Pre-ICANN meeting email inboxes are full at the best of times, so the GNSO SO/AC Support team has done away with the individual Remote Participation (RP) details and have created a one-stop wiki page for all your RP queries. In addition to this, ICANN meetings' team has put together a new ICANN meeting website which allows you to download all GNSO-related meetings to your inbox calendar in one go. 2 LINKS TO BOOKMARK NOW: ICANN56 Meeting Schedule<https://icann562016.sched.org/> GNSO Remote Participation w<https://community.icann.org/x/yCWOAw>iki page<https://community.icann.org/x/yCWOAw> Step 1 Go to the Meeting Schedule webpage, and if not done yet, create a log in when prompted. Every session on the schedule ca be selected and added to your calendar inbox. To get a general description of the session, please hover your mouse over the session title and a summary of the session will appear as well as a "add to my schedule" option. Step 2 Please download the ICANN56 Mobile App to automatically receive the latest updates to your schedule (available on Apple and Android products, look for "ICANN56") Step 3 All Adobe Connect rooms (which can be found on the session information on the Meeting Schedule and on the GNSO Remote Participation wikip age) will provide audio streaming. If you cannot join an Adobe Connect room for a session, and will need to dial in with your phone, please refer to the GNSO Remote Participation wiki page for the audio pass codes and dial in numbers. Please also follow the previous steps if you wish to take part in the session over the phone. Glen de St Gery and Terri Agnew will be onsite to assist you directly.
