Description
Root Zone Label Generation Rules for the Ethiopic Script
Overview
This file contains a set of Label Generation Rules for the Ethiopic script for the Root Zone. For more details on this LGR and its development, as well as background on the script, see "Proposal for Ethiopic Script Root Zone LGR [Proposal-Ethiopic]". This file is one of a set of LGR files that together form an integrated LGR for the DNS Root Zone [RZ-LGR-4]. The format of this file follows [RFC 7940].
Repertoire
The repertoire of 311 code points is described in Section 5, "Repertoire", of [Proposal-Ethiopic] and only includes code points used by languages that are actively written in the Ethiopic script. The repertoire is based on [MSR-4], which is a subset of [Unicode 6.3].
As part of the Root Zone, this LGR includes neither digits nor the HYPHEN-MINUS.

Each code point or range is tagged with the script or scripts that the code point is used with, and one or more references documenting sufficient justification for inclusion in the repertoire; see "References" below. Comments identify the languages using the code point.
Variants
According to Section 6, "Variants" in [Proposal-Ethiopic], there are significant numbers of code points that can be used interchangeably in the writing system of the Amharic language. Two code points are variants of each other if they can be used interchangeably in the writing system of the Amharic language and their use yields identical lexical terms for canonical labels (for labels with dictionary meaning) and same or identical representation(s) for non-canonical labels (for labels that do not have dictionary meaning). The Amharic language is the official working language of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and many of the states within the federal system. Due to security problems these variants pose, they are treated as script wide variants beyond the Amharic language.
Variant Disposition: All variants are of type "blocked", making labels that differ only by these variants mutually exclusive: whichever label containing either of these variants is chosen earlier would be delegated, while any other equivalent label should be blocked.
This LGR does not define allocatable variants.
The specification of variants in the Root Zone LGR follows the guidelines in [RFC 8228].
Character Classes
This LGR does not define character classes.
Whole Label Evaluation (WLE) and Context Rules
Default Whole Label Evaluation Rules and Actions
The LGR includes the set of required default WLE rules and actions applicable to the Root Zone and defined in [MSR-4]. They are marked with ⍟.
Ethiopic-specific Rules
According to Section 7, "Whole Label Evaluation (WLE) Rules" in [Proposal-Ethiopic], this LGR does not define rules specific to Ethiopic.
Methodology and Contributors
The Root Zone LGR for the Ethiopic script was developed by the Ethiopic Generation Panel. For details on methodology and contributors, see Sections 4 and 8 in [Proposal-Ethiopic], as well as [RZ-LGR-4-Overview].

Variants
Code points grouped into sets of mutual variants. Every member of a set produces the same set of variant labels, so a registration of one has implications for all the others. Sets of a single member are omitted, as are the identity mappings RFC 7940 requires each member to declare.

Rules
Conditions evaluated against a whole label, or against the context around a
single code point. The notation borrows from regular expressions:
^ and $ anchor to the start and end of a label,
. matches any code point, (?= ) and
(?<= ) look ahead and behind, and * and
+ repeat. Two symbols are specific to rulesets:
◆ is the code point being tested, and
⟨name⟩ refers to another rule.
