China announces 3 new TLDs
Via ICANN Watch:
ukryule writes "It seems the Chinese government has announced 3 new top level domains - using Chinese characters (seen via slashdot). The article is a bit sketchy on details, but it seems that it is based on existing IDN (punycode) technology, and is already widely deployed in China. The 3 new TLDs are ".公司", ".网络" & ".中国" (equivalent to.com, .net, .cn). Notable by it's abscence is any mention of ICANN ... it is unclear whether there been any discussion between the Chinese registry and ICANN, and how these new TLDs fit in with the existing root nameservers."
