The organization that oversees the Internet has tentatively approved an .asia web domain to unify the Asia-Pacific community, but it has delayed a decision on a .xxx zone for pornography sites.
At its annual meeting this past weekend in Vancouver, the Internet Corp. for Assigned Names and Numbers said the new .asia domain would supplement suffixes available for individual countries, such as .cn for China and .jp for Japan. A decision on .xxx is expected in early 2006.
