Re: New article for 2nd REVIEW: An Introduction to Multilingual Web Addresses

I may not have understood correctly, but what happens if I were to 
register xn--jp-cd2fp15c.xn--fsq.jp as a domain in itself before the 
Japanese company registered it. Surely there would be a clash?

Is there potential for cyber-squatting by registering punycode domain 
names for well know Asian companies?

Have I misunderstood? would the domain registration for a punycode 
domain be refused without registration of its "real" name?
