This vote will also allow existing .com and .net holders to have the "com" and "net" in local languages and scripts after 10 years in the waiting, as well as idn.ccTLDS. IDN.com and IDN.net holders will finally have the option to used those extensions as well as the IDN.IDN verson.. These are some of the suggested .com and .net transliterations, as well as a few ccTLD translations that have been speculated...but are not finalized.
