ICANN says yes to non-Latin domain names
|  |
Posted on Friday, October 30 2009 @ 18:35:52 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck |
Network World reports ICANN has given the green light for non-Latin domain names. Starting on November 16th, countries and territories will be able to apply to show domain names in their native language.
The move comes after years of technical testing and policy development, said the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which held a meeting in Seoul this week.
Currently, domain names can only be displayed using the Latin alphabet letters A-Z, the digits 0-9 and the hyphen, but in future countries will be able to display country-code Top Level Domains (cc TLDs) in their native language. ccTLDs are those that have a two-letter country designation at the end of a domain name.
