Subject: Re: [IP] IPv9 in China?

I did a little digging and found the original article in Chinese here:
http://politics.people.com.cn/GB/1027/6815403.html

The article appears to be written by someone without a CS background.
Anyway, it looks like a service that maps decimal numbers to IP
addresses. It is used by installing plugins to browsers.

Subject: IPv9 in China?

Is this the elusive IPv9?  Can Chinese readers get the original article and render a better translation, please?  
Second paragraph is almost Delphic.

Thanks,

Decimal network security address begins operation
China's decimal network security address was officially launched. China has made a fundamental breakthrough in its 
Internet development; and actual use has been successful.

The birth of decimal network technology makes China the only country able to unify domain names, IP addresses and MAC 
addresses into the text of a metric system; the second, after the United States (US), in the world to have root 
servers and IP address hardware connectivity servers and its own domain name, IP address and MAC address resources; 
and enables our country to become the world's second country (after the US) to possess and control scarce network 
resources such as network distribution, domain names and addresses. It puts a crack in the US's monopoly over the 
Internet, based on hexadecimal technology; and is a major, independent technical innovation of the Internet in China.

Features of China's decimal network security address takes the digital domain at the core of the Internet domain 
names analytical system - like calling the same input Internet - and there is obviously the safety of its system 
addresses on the Internet. It can isolate and effectively protect the user's privacy. At the same time, the metric 
system has a massive network of "domestic" information resources that are allocated by the Chinese automatically and 
are independently managed. This secure address can set aside addresses and domain names in accordance with national 
economic and social development needs.
