Did ICANN actually declare there would be IDN TLDs? I was under the impression -- possibly incorrect -- that they just threw their weight behind IDN SLDs. The two are rather different.
ICANN approved "fast tracking" applications for IDN TLDs starting next month, after which ICANN then needs to approve but is expected to do so quickly (middle of next year) for a limited number of TLDs such as China and Korea in order for the community to gain experience with such IDN TLDs. http://www.icann.org/en/topics/idn/fast-track/ The NYTimes article did mention security concerns, but ICANN said "they" were ready (I am sure I do not want to go down the ICANN discussion trap). http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/31/technology/31net.html?_r=1 _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
