08:59:35 From Justine Chew to Everyone:
    i dont want to know either!
09:00:23 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Welcome All
09:00:53 From Heidi Ullrich - ICANN Org to Everyone:

    Hi everyone...
09:01:59 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    Hi Yesim , Amrita and everyone 
09:02:18 From Aris Ignacio to Everyone:
    Hello everyone!
09:04:16 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Apologies I dropped briefly
09:04:25 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    If you have any questions - please raise it in the chat first
09:04:35 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    so that Satish and Justine can clarify
09:11:36 From Justine Chew to Everyone:
    Maybe ask if anyone has questions first?
09:11:37 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    Thank you Satish ,  In Arabic script we do have the formation letters (link in the French language the accent aigu / accent grave) , so for example Amman the capital of Jordan and Oman the Arabic country are written the same in Arabic script , So how such challenges are sorted out ?
09:11:48 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Reacted to "Maybe ask if anyone ..." with 
09:15:22 From Justine Chew to Everyone:
    Replying to "Thank you Satish ,  ..."
    
    Not sure I understand your questions. Scripts are language-dependent. So Arabic script is one script. French is covered under the Latin script.
09:16:26 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    I agree with you Satish , for Arabic more variant will cause lots of issue and confusion
09:17:10 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    But the recommendation says no cieling
09:17:16 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    *ceiling
09:17:28 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    What is the ALAC position till now?
09:17:42 From Justine Chew to Everyone:
    Replying to "I agree with you Sat..."
    
    Yes, the major concern is with the Arabic script because Arabic labels have lots and lots of variants (in general)
09:17:42 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Why people say ceiling is necessary
09:22:16 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr to Everyone:
    Yes anything that gets the IDN Variants out in the root is good from my POV
09:22:51 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Question: How does two many variant destabilise the root zone?
09:23:40 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Also if in new upto 4 variants are allowed, its technically means while there is no ceiling there is a wall to hinder applying more variants
09:23:46 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    Reacted to "Yes, the major conce..." with 
09:23:53 From Dr.N.Sudha Bhuvaneswari to Everyone:
    Sorry to join late
09:24:02 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Do raise your hand if you have questions
09:26:35 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    Replying to "I agree with you Sat..."
    
    Yes because some letters have many shapes   .
09:29:19 From Amrita Choudhury to Everyone:
    Thanks for the clarification.
09:37:02 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    As from me personally I will go straightly  to register my domain in English rather than paying additional cost for lots of Arabic variante 
09:40:10 From Nabeel Yasin - APRALO Policy Forum to Everyone:
    Yes I agree with you , Thank you Satish :)
