[governance] Is really Bulgarian Cyrillic .бг (.bg) similar to other Latin ccTLDs?

[Imran Ahmed Shah]

Thanks Ian, 

I also agree with you that IG Caucus being  Internet Governance supporting
organizations should write to the ICANN Board in this regard.
I also have replied to Daniel, with some questions about the evaluation of
the need of IDN ccTLD and as soon as he returns with demand and supporting
comments, we should start the drafting of the letter.

Thanking you  and Best Regards

Imran Ahmad Shah

Perhaps a carefully drafted letter from this Caucus would be useful in this
regard?
