Interesting news and it confirms my worries.
No one knows yet if IDN.com names will have a use now that they talk of IDN.ITLDS | |

I get fed up with listening to detractors who have this strange notion that several hundred new registeries that have not yet even been proposed are going to spring from nowhere by Christmas. Find out how long ago it was that the submission for dot EU was originally lodged, then you will realise that they liklihood of even one or two new registries for ITLDs in a relevant timeframe is about as remote as the chances of it raining on the moon.

it seems logical that DNAME is the only solution that can get IDN's running any time soon. Setting up separate gtld's for all the languages would push IDN's back another decade IMHO. I doubt China would wait that long. | |

yes....but European TLD was delayed because it was not even a united country yet plus lots of burocracy.
I told you, I hope you`re right, otherwise it will be just a big mess for many people. | |

Even Hebrew could be very problematic? Also Russian is not only spoken in Russia, the script is used through much of Eastern Europe and the language is still prevalent in central Asia.
