==Background==
===IDN Transliterations of .com & .net===
Verisign's [[Pat Kane]] noted in January 2012 that the company was planning on applying for "about 12" new gTLDs, and noted that most of these were going to be [[IDN]] transliterations of [[.com]].<ref>[http://seekingalpha.com/article/322517-verisign-management-discusses-q4-2011-results-earnings-call-transcript?part=qanda 2011 Results Earnings Call Transcript], SeekingAlpha.com.

During its first quarter earnings report, on April 26, 2012, it was confirmed that Verisign would be applying for 14 new gTLDs, 12 of which are foreign language transliterations of .com and .net.
In the end, the languages chosen for transliterations are: Thai, Deva, Korean (Hang), Chinese (Hant/Traditional & Hans/Simplified), Hebrew, Russian, Arabic, Japanese. The two non-IDN applications by the company are for [[.comsec]] and [[.verisign]].
