===IDNs & ICANN===
On June 12, 2003, [[Koki Higashida]], president of JPRS wrote to [[Paul Twomey]], ICANN President and CEO expressing the company's frustration regarding the slow process in the finalization of the [[IDN|International Domain Names]] Implementation Guidelines and Procedures as well as ICANN's unresponsiveness on the issue. Higashida pointed out that during the Board Meeting in Rio de Janeiro on March 23, 2006, Dr. [[Andrew McLaughlin]] mentioned that the first authorization of registration of IDN would be made over a couple of weeks by mid-April. According to him, the IDN service was delayed and the internet community in Japan hasn't received any explanation from ICANN; thus he was requesting Twomey to speed up the implementation of IDNs.<ref>[http://www.wwtld.org/meetings/cctld/20030622.Montreal-IDN-JPRS-to-ICANN.html wwtld.org]</ref>
