Do you know that characters used in top-level domains (TLDs) extend beyond ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) including other scripts such as Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Japanese and others?
To determine valid TLD labels in these scripts and their variants, however, community input is very important. Find out more about IDNs at our webinar session and learn how you can play a part!
