The Russian government, as a result, is taking the lead in a landmark shift occurring around the world to allow domain names in languages with non-Latin alphabets. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/22/world/europe/22cyrillic.html http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09356/1022779-82.stm Russians Not Keen on IDN Top Level Domain The reaction was swift and positive — finally, after years of typing in Latin-based top level domains, people who use different character sets would soon be able to type in new top level domain names in their own alphabets. http://domainnamewire.com/2009/12/22/russians-not-keen-on-idn-top-level-domain/ New York Times Reviews Cyrillic IDNs The New York Times discussed the future of Cyrillic IDNs.

To recap, ICANN, which oversees domain names globally, announced that it was "opening up" the internet so that "anyone" could get the domain extension they wanted. Of course it's not really "everyone" and the process to date has been far from smooth. http://www.circleid.com/posts/berlin_the_latest_new_tld_battleground/ Expressions of Interest for New TLDs Still a Long Wait If the current draft plan for accepting “Expressions of Interest” for new top level domain names is adopted in similar form, ICANN won’t start accepting applications until June 2010 at the earliest. http://domainnamewire.com/2009/12/21/expressions-of-interest-for-new-tlds-still-a-long-wait/ ********************** - ccTLD & gTLD NEWS ********************** auDA blames Sapia Pty for its own censorship procedure abandoning .com.au domain Australian registry company Sapia Pty has been accused of abandoning its own procedures to censor a website satirising communications minister Stephen Conroy's ISP filtering regime. http://ecommerce-journal.com/news/26080_auda-blames-sapia-pty-its-own-censorship-procedure-abandoning Stephen Conroy: Dear Crikey, here’s why you’re wrong In these times of bloggers, citizen journalism and the 24-hour news cycle, quality journalism is under threat.
