Afilias Announces New Scripts for .info Domains.
2006-10-24, HostMan.biz Afilias, a global provider of Internet domain name registry services, announced today that it has released support for eight additional Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) language scripts(1) in the .INFO generic top-level domain. These eight additional scripts join the German (DE) script that launched in 2004. The new scripts include: Polish (PL), Swedish (SV), Danish (DA), Hungarian (HU), Icelandic (IS), Latvian (LV), Lithuanian (LT), and Korean (KO). "As the only truly global domain, we are pleased to continue to provide innovations to .INFO that help to expand its relevance and usefulness worldwide, and at the same time bring the domain to a wider base of customers that can ensure more locally available and indigenous content for an international, non-English speaking audience," said Roland A. LaPlante, Chief Marketing Officer for Afilias. "This is especially timely given the recent upgrades to the Internet Explorer browser and launch of IE7 which is the first version to support the IDN standard natively, making IDN resolution easy--and automatic-- for the many Internet users." Internet users are familiar with using domains that are written in ASCII characters - on Web sites, in e-mail, and in many other Internet applications. Afilias' IDNs provide users with the ability to register their desired domain in their local language, using non-ASCII characters that previously did not work in Web browsers. Afilias' IDN technology seamlessly works with IDNA Web browsers and e-mail clients so that the new domain can resolve. Internet applications, such as Internet Explorer 7, Netscape 8.1.2, Firefox 1.5.0.7, and Opera 9 support the use of IDNs. Afilias' IDN registrations are based on the Punycode standard approved in 2003. .INFO was the first domain to automatically accept Punycode registrations in a gTLD when it launched the German script in 2004. Those interested in registering .INFO IDN names should contact an ICANN-accredited and Afilias-authorized registrar of their choice. |
