22. Special - Provisions For ML.Registrations

Registrants who register a multilingual domain name, initially, in Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Japanese, and Korean scripts, [herafter referred to as 'ML Registrations'] acknowledge that the system is currently in a testbed phase, is subject to change and that future changes to standards by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) may cause the registrant's domain name registration to become invalid and be deleted or may require changes to the internal representation of a domain name, or may require a change to the period of the licence.

The registrant's ML.Registration is stored in the Registry's database in an ASCII-compatible representation as defined by the RACE Internet-Draft. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has not finalized multilingual standards. In the future, revisions to the Internet draft documents may cause:

The registrant's ML.Registration to become invalid and be deleted.
Modification to the Registry's internal representation of the domain name to comply with revisions to the Internet draft documents.
Such occurrences will be resolved on a case-by-case basis, as they occur.
