Hi,
ICANN is currently conducting a public comment period on six case studies of individual scripts to investigate any issues that need to be resolved to facilitate a good user experience for IDN variant TLDs. The public comments received will inform the formulation of the combined issues report.
If you have an interest in the possibility of IDN variant TLDs, please provide comments by 14 November. The Latin Case Study Team Issues Report and public comment forum can be found at:
