Under the principle that the preferred variants label must be delegated
to the same applicant/registrant, parallel provisioning has been proven adequate to handle the
variants issue for“.中 国/中 國” to users’ satisfaction. Employing registration policy and
enforcement measures, vertical consistency can be ensured in variant domain names. In practice,
about 17% of DNS queries for “.中国/中國” are directed at variant domain names, while around
23% DNS queries for “.台湾/台灣” are for variant forms. In the event the registrant has other
sophisticated demand for Chinese domain names and their variant forms, CDNC believes this
demand can be realized at the application layer without the use of mirroring technology at the
root.
