We recommend that processes for the implementation of ASCII gTLDs and
IDN gTLDs should be separated.

Addition of ASCII gTLDS is a known and straight-forward process and is
ready for implementation of predictable, transparent, and objective
procedures.

IDN gTLDs raise some new technical problems and policy concerns. In
resolving these issues we strongly suggest that local language
communities be encouraged and supported to take a central role in
developing policy for the implementation of IDNs.

We stress that the expeditious implementation of both ASCII and IDN
gTLDs is equally important. A rapid and parallel process for
implementation of both is needed. The separation of processes must not
become a reason for delaying the implementation of either ASCII or IDN
gTLDs.
