for users of languages with diacritics, TLDs with and without the diacritics are, however regretably, seen as the same thing.
With due respect, I must disagree - simply because unless I'm mistaken, there are no TLDs with diacritics at the moment.
this easy to answer. There actually are:
.vermögensverwaltung and .vermögensverwalter
I stand corrected. But my point still stands: whether or not such TLDs will be seen as the same thing by users in the future is not obvious. People may well get used to seeing the difference, especially in cases where the ASCII and diacritic version of the word are both meaningful but with different meanings. -- Tapani Tarvainen
