Why the domain name was registered :
- To illustrate that an IDN script-based registration
(particularly with Arabic Script) is a good ground for phishing.
- To encourage the international communities in general and
language communities ( that use Arabic script) in particular to work
together in finding solutions to these kind of problems.
- To speed up the process for ccTLD IDN fast track where each IDN
ccTLD will serve only one language.
- If new IDN-gTLDs will be open, then they should focus on
languages rather than scripts till a solution has been reached (see
point 2)

delivered on the ICANN regional meeting, Dubai 1-3 April 2008 [.pdf]
