It's a genuine, non-corrupt reasonable demand that you should be able to have your own language in DNS.If it's only about language, it's not reasonable at all. "com" isn't English, "de" isn't German, "cat" probably isn't Catalan. By that reason, every ccTLD needs multiple additional TLDs (offical and semi-official country name (Poor FYROM. There are '"'s in the country's official name, so it can't be put into DNS even with IDNA.)
Not all languages use roman orthographies. If Microsoft wants to have a Chinese version of their site with chinese(microsoft).chinese(cn), on what grounds do you get to insist that it should only be chinese(microsoft).cn? _______________________________________________ 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.
