Wow IDNs are completely & truly dead. Guess it's time to completely give up on any hope.

Anyway thread closed.

Not dead, just in a coma, with lots of people gathered around the bed hoping for a miracle.

[jose]

Unfortunately, you are right.

[blackpower]

They are not dead... it's just you've made a lot of assumptions that has proven false; anyway, portuguese (brazil) idns are doing well . They will be doing even better in future. Of course because .com is a popular extention in Brazil and a short of country tld com.br. Unlike in other parts of the world...

Hopefully not with DNR on the notes at the bottom of the bed!

We might as well close down the IDNForums site & you should drop all your IDN holdings too ;) Or have you already dropped all of yours?

no i didn't. not saying that we should drop or close the site. i just didn't understand why you made so much effort in creating an auction often several times a week when you were usually the only one posting in the thread. I think i would have given up trying long time ago. it's just too frustrating for me to post something at reg-fee or slightly above without anyone caring.

Popular model for landrush phase of new TLDs might find its way to Verisign.

Verisign is considering some sort of “Early Access” period when it launches IDN .com transliterations, company executives explained today on the company’s 3rd quarter conference call.

In response to an analyst’s question, CEO James Bidzos said the rollouts will begin with the mandated sunrise period. After that, the company might have “Early Access” opportunities for those that want to “get in the door early”, he explained.

New top level domain name company Donuts popularized an Early Access model similar to a Dutch auction. Domains are available at a high premium the first day, dropping over time until domain names are offered at standard prices. Other new top level domain name companies have since imitated Donuts’ approach.

Verisign will launch 11 transliterations of .com and .net, such as .点看.

The company originally planned to keep transliterations locked for the owners of the same second level domain name in .com, but might adjust the program due to ICANN’s contract requirements.

what do you think? Will early access be limited to IDN holders or will it be open to everyone? To me it sounds like greed has taken over and they will just try to maximize short-term profits by letting everyone in as long as they pay up. The decision has not been made yet but the fact that they are considering it is not very reassuring.

[techguy]

It seems that they are going to ruin the dreams of IDN investors.
