Ah Adrian,

"Yet, the amount of ccTLD Operators that could apply for the IDN ccTLD Fast Track process is limited only to the 3166—1 list (a significant number in itself)."

Bzzzzzt. It's limited to those on the 3166-1 list who have national languages that aren't latin script. That cuts down the potential number significantly, even though some of those have more than one national not-latin-script language.

"Economic Analysis"

Not applicable for ccTLD's. Ever. You idiot.

"Essentially each IDN ccTLD Registry Operator is free to operate their domain name space as they see fit. Where is the trademark protection for trademark holders in this process?"

In the existing laws of those countries, that are already applied to their existing ccTLD.

Adrian, you sound like a WATB.
