Internationalized Registration Data (IRD) Report

The Interim Report of the Internationalized Registration Data Working Group has been posted.

Registration data is the information that domain name registrants enter into Whois, primarily so that appropriate parties can find who operates a web site. Increasingly, registration data is being entered in more of the world’s languages and scripts. The GNSO and SSAC created the Internationalized Registration Data Working Group (IRD-WG) to study the feasibility and suitability of introducing submission and display specifications to deal with the internationalization of Registration Data.

The Working Group has evaluated four possible display models and offers its impact assessment.
