Paris, France: The Board of ICANN today approved a recommendation that could see a whole range of new names introduced to the Internet's addressing system.
"The Board today accepted a recommendation from its global stakeholders that it is possible to implement many new names to the Internet, paving the way for an expansion of domain name choice and opportunity" said Dr Paul Twomey, President and CEO of ICANN. A final version of the implementation plan must be approved by the ICANN Board before the new process is launched. It is intended that the final version will be published in early 2009.
PARIS, FRANCE: The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) concluded its 32nd International Public Meeting in Paris today after four days of discussions that will shape the future of the Internet.
The conclusion of the meeting saw the approval of a proposal to expand the world’s Domain Name System and to work on adapting it to accommodate top level domain names in scripts such as Arabic, Cyrillic or other non-Latin scripts.
At its 25 June 2008 meeting in Paris, France the GNSO Council decided to post for public review and comment proposed new language that seeks to clarify two portions of the existing Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP). The two portions of the policy (identified in the proceeding as Reason # 8 and Reason # 9) apply to parts of the IRTP that govern the denial of transfer requests submitted to the original registrar of record. A drafting group formed by the Council created the language and has asked the GNSO Council to approve its conclusions.

ICANN recently put forth a proposal to address tasting due in large part to CADNA's championing of this issue and because of objective research and analysis of the proposed solutions conducted by the coalition.
