Tina Dam, the Senior Director of IDNs at ICANN was featured in a CNN segment on IDNs entitled “Internet Shake-Up.” Among the highlights of the piece was the question of how English speakers in the U.S. can easily access websites in other scripts, such as Arabic. Tina responded with a question that goes to the core of the matter, which is, why would those who don’t speak, write or read a foreign language want to access a website in such a foreign language? IDNs are geared towards countries that speak, type, read and write in a specific non-Latin script, and it is the needs of those countries that will be met by this initiative.

Most encouraging was Tina’s statement that ICANN will look into internationalizing .com and other gTLDs. One of the many proposals for such internationalization involves either unlocking or aliasing IDN.com names so that the holder of the IDN.com gets first crack at obtaining the corresponding IDN.com-in-IDN. In the CNN interview, Tina noted that this may be one of the next steps: “Just as we’re used to seeing .com today and .info . . . those can become internationalized as well, so that will be one of the next steps.”
