Just wondering if anyone with some experience with Greek IDNs can help me out here.
I went yesterday to reg a greek idn, which including the stress/tone on a specific letter, eg: αθήνα
The name without the tone, eg: αθηνα, was already regged, so I believed I would be able to reg the version with the tone.
Both names by the way have different punycode.
Anyway, I did a check for the toned name before I purchsed it, and no site or name existed. I checked the "non-toned" version, and was redirected to a site.
This morning, I receive an email saying that the name couldnt be regged. Slightly confused, I went to check the name, and sure enough, it redirected me to the same page that the "non-toned" name took me too yesterday.
So, my question is, once you have regged a Greek IDN, tone or no-tone, do you have the rights to both of the names ??
Hope that made sense ??
Thanks for reading.
