Voting - UASG Vice Chairs
by Don Hollander March 11, 2017

March 11, 2017

You should each, individually, shortly be receiving a voting paper for the UASG 2017 Election for Vice-Chairs. The email is being sent from info(a)uasg.tech <mailto:info@uasg.tech> - so perhaps you may find it in some spam filter. If you don’t receive the voting papers and want to vote, please do let me know directly and I’ll investigate. Voting is open until 23:59 UTC 19 March 2017.

Resolving the Vice Chair elections situation
by Ram Mohan March 9, 2017

March 9, 2017

Folks, I’ve now spent a little bit of time contemplating the situation we are in. We issued a call for nominations for Vice-Chair. Our charter provides for 2-3 Vice Chairs. 6 qualified candidates volunteered. In the spirit of inclusion, I suggested all 6 become Vice-Chairs by acclamation. There is rough consensus for this position. However, two issues give us pause: 1. Changing rules mid-stream. We had a duly constituted process through which we began executing elections. Changing the rules after the fact demonstrates the wrong approach towards governance – even though we are a very collegial group with a common, shared goal. 2. If everyone had known that all nominees would/could become Vice-Chairs, potentially **more** nominees would have volunteered. Changing the rules after the fact therefore potentially disenfranchises those folks. As a result, I am asking Don Hollander to resume the election process for the 3 Vice Chair positions, and to refresh everyone’s memory by re-listing the slate of candidates. Some/most of the candidates will be attending the ICANN58 meeting in Copenhagen, which will allow folks to engage with them. Don, please let the election run until after the close of the ICANN58 meeting, but let the voting commence in the next couple of days (once you are done traveling to Copenhagen). We are a community driven and bottom-up initiative. I am so pleased that we have six excellent candidates who have come forward to serve the community and further our drive towards a world where all TLDs and emails will be universally accepted. Regards, Ram Chair, Universal Acceptance Steering Group

Spotify
by Andre Schappo March 5, 2017

March 5, 2017

I have done a little analysis of and experimentation with Spotify. experimentation: I have setup my Spotify account with a Japanese Katakana username, a Chinese hanzi email address and a Korean hangeul password. Native script forms and not romanised forms. It works!!! How cool is that😀 analysis: Spotify uses google mail. The following is an extract from my terminal session. 苹果电脑 ~: host spotify.com<http://spotify.com> spotify.com<http://spotify.com> has address 194.132.198.149 spotify.com<http://spotify.com> has address 194.132.197.198 spotify.com<http://spotify.com> has address 194.132.198.198 spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 10 ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.com<http://ASPMX4.GOOGLEMAIL.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com<http://ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 10 ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.com<http://ASPMX5.GOOGLEMAIL.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 10 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.com<http://ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com<http://ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 5 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com<http://ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com>. spotify.com<http://spotify.com> mail is handled by 10 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.com<http://ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.com>. I also checked with XgenPlus EAI tester https://eai.xgenplus.com/ using address support(a)spotify.com<mailto:support@spotify.com> If you run the test yourself you will see the server advertising SMTPUTF8 So, this explains the Chinese email address part working, as google supports EAI.
