"Building on the addition of Internationalized country-code TLDs in 2010, the move is an effort to create a more inclusive Internet." :) 2013/10/21 José Francisco Arce <josefranciscoarce@gmail.com>:

Omar: I voted for the ALAC Statement to prioritize IDN rollout for cause. While I'm not sure of the context for your grouse, I beg you consider these facts: - The fastest growing segment of Internet users is in the Asia Pacific region - The greatest opportunity for connecting the next billion resides in the Asia Pacific geographic region - Most of the prospective users are literate in non-ASCII and non-latinized scripts - Most of them are Chinese and Indians, Indonesians, Citizens of the 'stans', Arabs and Malays. Throw in a relatively few Russians. I would wish for them to enjoy the bounties of the Internet just as I would all non-native English speakers, including Spanish or Portuguese speakers. On the balance of the evidence and even with my shameful single language capability, I would vote for more and prioritized IDNs again.

Dear Carlton, Again, I'm not criticizing the fact that the first four new gTLDs are IDNs, but the fact that most of the new gTLDs are commercial initiatives and the domain names are losing importance due to the relevance of search engines specially Google. IOW, I know it's symbolic, but we need to do much more to talk about a real inclusive internet. As I pointed, this discussion list is a good example, running only in english and spanish for all this years. All the best, Omar 2013/10/22 Carlton Samuels <carlton.samuels@gmail.com>:

Agreed. Attempts to empower community-type gTLDs have largely failed.
and the domain names are losing importance due to the relevance of search engines specially Google.
Absolutely true. Our Canadian colleague Evan Leibovitch has been consistent in raising awareness around this issue.
IOW, I know it's symbolic, but we need to do much more to talk about a real inclusive internet.
Agreed.

Touche. :-)
All the best,
Cheers.
