Here's the current schedule for the UASG in Kobe Friday, 8th March starting at 9:00 AM in RUBY room. UASG Workshop A working session for the Universal Acceptance Steering Group. We'll review efforts to date and make plans for the rest of the year. We'll also review detailed reports and other documentation. Other topics will include: Consideration of Communication strategy and activities; discussions of EAI Activities and directions; Formation of a Measurement working group. There will also be time for the UA Ambassadors present to meet and compare notes and experiences - identifying what worked in each environment. There will also be an opportunity to meet candidates for election before the election deadline. Wednesday, 13th March at 10:30 AM in RUBY Room - UASG Community Forum Hear from the Universal Acceptance Steering Group and what they've been up to since the ICANN meeting in Barcelona. Topics covered will include: Email Address Internationalisation (EAI) where non-ASCII characters can be used in the domain name (IDNs) as well as the mailbox names; Community Outreach; Updates on the approach taken to resolve underlying technical issues in programming languages and operating systems. Would you please let me know (off list) if you're planning on attending one or both of these? Thanks. Don Don Hollander Secretary General - UASG Skype: Don_Hollander
I will attend the Workshop on FRI 8th. I will not be able to attend on WED 13th due to a conflict with EPDP Team Meeting 3 of 4. Please also note the ALAC session later on WED 13th: https://64.schedule.icann.org/meetings/962007 At-Large Leadership Policy Workshop 3: Challenges and possible At-Large opportunities regarding Universal Acceptance Challenges and possible At-Large opportunities regarding Universal Acceptance; One of the most significant barriers to the successful expansion of the DNS is the lack of universal acceptance of the new names both Latin and IDN. If the majority of websites reject new URLs and email addresses widespread adoption of these strings will forever be limited. In this session we'll discuss the state of so-called Universal Acceptance, what is being done and what more could be done. In particular, will discuss if there is a role for the at-large structures (ALS) in evangelizing the concept to the major players in their region.
