This is really great news for Chinese IDN holders. Alibaba is a far reaching company that I have used for many years to buy products. I think this raises the value of Chinese IDN's ... what do you think Duck?

Well, I guess you could read what you like into, but the timing is interesting suggesting that want to sell IDN or Chinese Domains. The fact that they need ICANN accreditation also suggests that the dot Com is important to them.
