Today ICANN, the organization that controls the Internet—it's true! They are a non-profit that controls what domain names and suffixes may exist—announced some news: They will allow companies and individuals to create domains that end in .whatever. Like, ".ebay," and ".nyc." Or ".sluts." But it's almost impossible to learn this, because ICANN refuses to communicate in what the rest of the world would regard as recognizable language. Everything they produce reads like a manual for a microwave written in Tagalog and translated through Babelfish into Hebrew and then, lazily, popped into English.

Here's the hot news from their website:

The IDNC WG Board Proposal, pursuant to IDNC WG charter, contains the final report of the IDNC WG, as well as the statement of GAC and ccNSO on the recommendations included in the report

Excuse me, what?

Maybe their blog is more human-friendly! Let's see:

The question shows that there is an expectation that: (ii) that the registry operator for the .tld will apply to become the operator for such new TLD(s), and that if they doso and are successful in their application, that they will implement .tld with an aliasing functionality where registrants under .tld automatically becomes registrants of the same domain names under .idn-tld

We can only imagine the horrors that await in their monthly magazine. Why can't the folks who are in charge of the Internet hire a corporate writer who can translate from trade cant?
