==History==
==History==
In June 2000 an organization named XNSORG was formed by [[Cordance]] to manage Extensible Name Services which were a predecessor to i-names. It worked to create a level of trust between people and new data sharing networks provided by the internet. Working actively, XNS published XNS 1.0 specifications in June 2002 which contributed in the formation of [[XRI]] with the help of [[OASIS]]. [[XRI]] was formed in February 2004, therefore, giving a new direction to XNSORG.<ref>[http://www.xdi.org/modules/pages/index.php?id=2 About CDI.org]</ref> On 6 June 2004, XNSORG was replaced by its successor XDI.org. This name conversion was a part of Early Global Services program which gave opportunity to a limited number of individuals and organizations to re-register themselves with a global i-name.<ref>[http://www.xdi.org/docref/legal/egs-xns-name-conversion.html XDI.org Name Conversion]</ref> XDI.org started providing registrations for i-names and i-numbers on 20 June 2006. i-names and i-numbers can be the digital identities for companies, individuals or even products. This system creates a secure environment where sharing of email addresses and telephone numbers is no longer needed.<ref>[http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=173364 prnewswire]</ref>
