Can we ruminate succeeding amendments In Structure of UASG Charter
by Fariz Ahmadi Feb. 3, 2021

Feb. 3, 2021

Hello, I would encourage UASG community group to have one more look at the prevailing UASG Charter https://uasg.tech/uasg-charter/ and see if we can ruminate succeeding amendments In Structure. Present: Strength: One Chair and two to three Vice-Chairs Term: Two-year terms with the possibility of one reappointment so that Chairs and Vice-Chairs will serve for a period of no less than two years and no more than four. Purpose: Strength: One Chair and Four Vice-Chairs (We need at least four vice-chairs, as we have four community working groups in UASG, each of whom should oversee them apart from achieving goal of the Steering Group which is primarily to oversee and participate in the work of the UASG.) Terms: Appointment to Two-year terms with the possibility of one reappointment for Chairs and for Vice-Chairs Two-year terms with the possibility of unrestricted reappointment, both done with elections and selection by members of the UASG community. UASG community group offer your views so that UASG Secretariat can address leadership based on community feedback and implement improvements based on community feedback in the charter. Thanks Fariz Ahmadi

Ћирилизатор - browser extension
by Dušan Stojičević Jan. 28, 2021

Jan. 28, 2021

Dear all, I found interesting to share this idea with you and apologizing in front if you don’t share my view… Ћирилизатор, the extension for all significant browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Kiwi…) is doing one simple task> transliteration from Latin script to Cyrillic script on opened website pages - with one click. Although this extension for browsers is limited to Latin->Cyrillic only and it work just under one language (Serbian), the idea and approach is good, and can be inspiration for similar extension on other languages. Author is domestic programmer, Mr. Turanjanin, and more info can be found on https://www.turanjanin.net/cirilizator/ or https://github.com/turanjanin/cirilizator I am aware that this extension is not connected entirely to UASG and domain names, but it is a small and practical example of how to solve multilingual Internet and Universal Acceptance in wider sense.
