RNIDS: Cyrillic domain .срб became visible on the Internet
/ref>
The Serbian National Internet Domain Registry (RNIDS) has initiated on its forum (www.forum.rnids.rs) a public discussion on the Proposal of rules and processes for registering the Cyrillic domain "".
The Proposal of rules and processes for registering the Cyrillic domain "" is available on the forum of RNIDS. It regulates the registration of the sub-domain "" and the reservation of other domains for the needs of RNIDS, the reservation of the "" domain for the needs of the state, the reservation of the "" domain based on the current .rs domain names and the allocation of the unique code to each and every reserved "" domain.
The Rule book also determines the period for assigning the "" domain according to the priority right
In patent law, industrial design law, and trademark law, a priority right or right of priority is a time-limited right, triggered by the first filing of an application for a patent, an industrial design or a trademark respectively. The priority ri ...
, after which the period of free registration of the "" domain will commence, based on the same or similar rules now applicable for the .rs domain.
"" has, in many fonts, a very similar appearance to the Latin alphanumeric .cp6, which is not registered as a TLD. Similarly proposed TLDs .бг (for Bulgaria) and .ελ (for the Greece) have been rejected or stalled because of this problem, but "" has not. The general policy for internationalized TLDs is to require at least one of the letters in a TLD to not resemble a Latin letter; 6 is a numeric digit (not a Latin letter) and is not used in any TLDs. Furthermore, though б appears similar to a 6 in most Cyrillic alphabets, it does not in Serbian, where it more closely resembles Greek lowercase delta
Delta commonly refers to:
* Delta (letter) (Δ or δ), the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet
* D (NATO phonetic alphabet: "Delta"), the fourth letter in the Latin alphabet
* River delta, at a river mouth
* Delta Air Lines, a major US carrier ...
(δ), see the relevant section in the article on the letter .
