Idn.idn for .com and .net please.

#1 When will idn.com become idn.idn?? It better be NOW!!

Lumping idn.com and idn.net into the new gtld cash grab program is fine as long as they get included. Giving international language country code names a 2+ year jump is outrageous and unfair. Making the internet a truly inclusive place means letting people type, develop and surf websites in their native languages in the .com and .net extensions. Please speed up the international language gtld program so idn.com, idn.net become truly international extensions. Idn.idn is the future. More .whatever names only grabs more $$ from English speaking internet users and corporations and does NOTHING to promote the internet as a truly inclusive place. With more than half of the people on the internet who's native language is not English allowing them to surf and type in their own languages is WAY OVERDUE and very necessary.

One of the best initiatives ever that will expand opportunities on the web to accommodate the growing population of eager internet users in need of great and relevant domain names to brand their products and services online. In the old internet, the "dotcom" one, all the best domains have been parked by individuals who have no use for those names at all. This initiative opens a world of new possibilities for a new generation of users beyond .com. I support completely.

Key-Systems GmbH agrees that ICANN has followed a dilligent process, involving all relevant stakeholders and interests. Recommendations from all groups involved in the multi-stakeholder process have been reviewed, weighed and partially or fully incorporated into the Draft Applicant Guidebook.

The remaining issues to be resolved are mainly cosmetic.

BRS Media embraces, encourages and supports competition on the Internet. By backing ICANN and the New Top Level Domains, that will inspire small businesses towards further Innovation and Progress.

With over 14 years of experience, we are in a unique position to understand the benefits and job-creating opportunities that go hand in hand with Domain Name Expansion as has been witnessed throughout the history of the Internet.

New Top Level Domains will provide early-stage entrepreneurs, small businesses and new media start-ups with a great opportunity to build a successful online presence.

We believe that no matter the TLD extension (be it a cause, local/regional or industry specific) these new Top Level Domains will provide an incredible service to their respective communities, as well as, enrich and enhance the Internet.

Will be the single most devastating enablement to the United States collapse. It will be the fulcrum that will open the door to the United States of America becoming the US of China.
