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.
