Re: [UA-discuss] Automated UA Evaluation Tool
by Richard Merdinger Aug. 24, 2016

Aug. 24, 2016

Don, It seems like a very good start. One limiting aspect here is the idea that it will limit its scan to local addresses. I appreciate the rationale behind it, but could this be expanded to allow the person requesting the scan to optionally specify additional urls to consider as “not-foreign (in the format of *.example.tld or explicit https://site.example.tld) This could allow a single scan to cover a web presence that is spread across multiple domains. Imagine a single , comma separated input field at the bottom of the form shown in the document that was attached. --Rich Richard Merdinger GoDaddy, LLC On 8/24/16, 2:35 AM, "Don Hollander" <ua-discuss-bounces(a)icann.org on behalf of don.hollander(a)icann.org> wrote: One of the projects in this year’s plan is to produce an automated tool to evaluate an application’s UA Readiness.

Open Source Programming Language Review and Mitigation Work
by Don Hollander Aug. 23, 2016

Aug. 23, 2016

Our project to identify, review and mitigate major programming language libraries/frameworks for UA Readiness is about to kick off. We’ll start with a review of evaluation criteria and then we’ll set off four parallel streams of review and mitigation work. At each point, we’ll gather to discuss findings along the way and adjust our course accordingly. Rather than clog the UA-Discuss list with these conversations, we’ve creating a UA Working Group mailing list ua-wg1(a)icann.org If you have an interest in this topic and would like to subscribe to this list, please let me know and I can add you.

Community Outreach Project Group co-convenor
by Don Hollander Aug. 17, 2016

Aug. 17, 2016

Dear all: We recently received notice from Rich Merdinger that he would like to withdraw from the co-convener role of the Community Outreach group but will retain his other role as Vice-Chair of the UASG. Rich takes pain to note that he is not reducing his overall commitment to the UASG. He is seeking to broaden the participation in the UA Coordination Group. We are now looking for a replacement co-convener (Christian Dawson is the other co-convener) for the Community Outreach Project group of the UASG. The Community Outreach project group is one of two project groups within the UASG (the other is EAI). >From the UASG Charter: Each Project Group will be led by one to two Coordinators, an appointed role by the Steering Group Chair without specific term. Each group will develop budgets (resource, staffing and money) necessary to complete specific projects and develop sourcing strategies. … Project Group leaders should submit a Statement of Interest that is publicly accessible, and lists their affiliations and interests. Project Groups can spawn additional smaller working parties…. Community Outreach Project Group · Information materials development / coordination · Business community & consumer outreach · Technical & academia community outreach · Government & NGO community outreach If you’re interested in this role, would you please send an email with your expression of interest and explanation why you should be chosen for this role to don.hollander(a)icann.org by the 19th of August 2016. Interviews will be conducted and a decision is expected by the end of August. The decision is up to the Chair of the UASG. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Don
