.ASIA Added to Internet Root
DotAsia, the non-profit organization behind the new .ASIA sponsored Top-Level Domain, announced last week that the extension has now been added to the Internet root, thus allowing it to function. The Sunrise period, which will begin in October 2007, will be divided into three phases, with the first stage intended for Governmental Reserved Names, the second phase for Registered Marks (i.e. Trademarks and service marks), and the final stage for Registered Entity Names (i.e. company names, organizations, etc.).
