Pat Kane
Patrick Kane is the Senior Vice-President and General Manager of Naming Services at Verisign, where he has worked since 1999
VeriSign
Pat Kane is responsible for the operational management, and relevant policy development for all TLDs operated by VeriSign under contract with ICANN; which include .com, .net, .name, .jobs, and .edu.
He has worked extensively around the development and deployment of IDNs, both within VeriSign and in external organizations like ICANN. As the IDN implementation process has opened up, VeriSign, via Pat Kane, has confirmed its interest in pursuing its ".com" and ".net" interests in their IDN format. That is, Mr. Kane wrote on February 17th, 2011, that VeriSign has every intention to pursue the equivalent transliterations of .com and .net in non ASCII text.
Pat Kane has been working on the implementation of DNSSEC; VeriSign has been tackling the security measures gradually as it is weary of disrupting any functioning for the large .com domains for which it is responsible. While VeriSign has been involved with DNSSEC development for some 15 years, the final implementation of the newest protocols has been mainly achieved under Pat Kane's supervision since 2009.
Community Participation
Mr. Kane is a member of ICANN's Presidential Advisory Board on IDNs, and is also involved in the GNSO's IDN Guidelines Review Committee. Pat participated in VeriSign's February, 2011, celebration of 15 years of the commercial Internet in New Delhi, India. He is a frequent participant at ICANN's meetings.

Когда выйдут официальные документы, для вас уже может быть слишком поздно.
Доменные зоны могут быть отсортированы по категориям (промышленность, география, национальность) и будут доступны на арабском, китайском и иных языках. До конца года ICANN намерена провести широкомасштабную пиар-кампанию по продвижению создания собственных доменов верхнего уровня разными сообществами. Прием заявок на регистрацию начнется 12 января 2012 г. и продлится до 12 апреля. http://www.utro.ru/articles/2011/06/20/981396.shtml
Пример.com = Пример.ком
от сингапур: "Just spoke to *Chuck Gomes.
He is saying they will apply for the major languages (Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hebrew, Devenagari etc)
Likely in .com and .net
They won't initially apply for minor languages but should someone else do so they will defend it based on confusing similarity.
Now the good news.
Currently registered IDN.ASCII /com/net will have the opportunity to activate the corresponding IDN.IDN
Only the registrant of IDN.ASCII /com/net will be able to activate the IDN.IDN (At a price of course)".

Не только в России, большинство, если не все cctld's находятся под эти риски.
Еще одно преимущество во владении доменных имен gTLD's (.com/.ком, только владелец пример.com получит пример.ком)
