Dotcom World-14: "Russia plans Web Addresses in Cyrillic"

Russia will be able to create its first internet addresses using the Cyrillic alphabet next year, communications ministry official Vladimir Vassilieve told Interfax news agency. The move follows a decision by the organisation that regulates the internet to deliver a radical shake-up to the domain-name system. Russia, which currently uses two top level domain names .ru and .su, will be able to create a third in Cyrillic by the second quarter of next year, Vassiliev said.
