How will ICANN ensure that synchronized IDN ccTLDs are continuously fulfilling the requirements?
The registry manager is required to report to ICANN showing how the synchronized requirements are fulfilled and how correction mechanisms and actions are resolving any issues that are found as a result of the active monitoring of the synchronized requirements. ICANN will not be auditing the IDN ccTLD manager, the IDN ccTLD zone content, or other parts of their system. As more work is conducted in the general field of synchronized, aliased, and other variant related approaches it is plausible that other and more automated mechanisms are developed and found more appropriate to manage synchronized IDN ccTLDs. In such a case, the IDN ccTLD managers are required to transition to the new technology if technically possible and appropriate. Such development could result in more automation or in some cases completely eliminate the need for the IDN ccTLD manager to conduct compliance checks against the required synchronized requirements. This in turn could reduce the amount of reporting required
