Likely as part of the new ICANN CEO's [[Fadi Chehadé]]'s internationalization of the organization, [[IDN]] gTLD applications were given priority in the [[batching|batching process]]. Batching is a term used to describe the prioritization of applications in such a way that ICANN staff can deal with them in an organized and efficient manner. The final process used to batch was a lottery, where applications were pulled at random.
