It was an russian-language article in ITC on-line magazine.
Below is quick translation from me. Sorry for result :)
<cite>
The company Network Solutions has announced that in a near future it
plans to begin scale testing of technology allowing to use of the
address of domains, which are made with application of not latin symbols
(i.e. not included in the coding ASCII), for example, east hieroglyphs,
Arabian alphabet or specific letters of the European languages. The
given technology was developed by the Californian firm I-DNS.net International.
The beginning of testing of new technology is planned to the fourth
quarter of the current year.
