Please do take the opportunity to educate people at NamesCon about IDNs. My experience and observations are that, still, most do not know what IDNs are nor that there are many registered and functioning IDNs

Not one IDN in the 500 plus name auction?

At this particular juncture, no market is probably a good thing.

I'll be there. Two more Chinese investors are going. Hope I'll have some opportunity to educate the ASCII group about IDNs.

Good luck with that.

Good luck, best market is probably the International guys, some may be open minded. Stats still say 70- 80% of the
world population doesn't read English so the market is there, and sad truth is most don't even know about IDNs.
Lets hope VeriSign kicks in some advertising in 2016 and kick starts the awareness and sparks some development.

I don't think the Chinese have gotten excited about IDNs yet, again most don't know they exist but the new Chinese gTLDs
are out of the gates and getting some attention. Maybe after the Chinese finish vacuuming up all the NNNNNNs' (nnn,nnnn,nnnnn,
nnnnnn) and premium LLLLs til there's nothing left IDNs will be their next big thing...maybe targeting between 2018 and 2022.
