Be patient. They are all getting there.

It's nice to know that my IDN sites don't "REALLY" exist yet. :)

Of course I'm willing to accept that this is all a dream and I'm about to wake up soon.

I think it means that they are expecting to launch DNAME in 2008.

China already has IDN.IDN, I expect we will see a limited service from ICANN in the near future. This might be launched under the discription "Test Bed".

No this is really breaking news - highly secret until now!

(Reuters - San Francisco) - A wealthy, unnamed Chinese businessman is poised to propose a new sTLD to ICANN for rollout next January, you guessed it .IDN

"We've been hearing so much about IDN these days", said the anonymous man with a 2-letter last name. "We just thought, why not sponsor a new TLD, completely IDN compatible, where we can publicize IDNs?"

"Any time someone wanted to discuss DNAME this would make it more difficult, as there would now be ambiguity to the phrase "IDN.IDN" which would refer to a website I would manage." He continued saying "and I could have a field day getting free publicity for my sites like chinese.idn, japanese.idn etc. I'm going to make a lot of money!"
