		<description>And THEN they take the “closing soon” auctions off the main page!

What sort of IDIOT takes the closing soon auctions off the main page of a domain auction website?

Re: you point #1

Have a look it the new search on Sedo.com, we&#039;ve expanded coverage for languages. Also the new semantic relevance algorithm should improve relevance, at least for the most common languages (we&#039;ll expand to all languages with time)</description>

		<description>&quot;Advanced&quot; search at SEDO has always been a joke.

Try getting a list of all the Spanish domains for sale.

You get an error back &quot;Please provide one or more additional criteria for your search: domain name or keyword, category, or date added.&quot;

So you set &quot;Date added&quot; to &quot;last 3 months&quot; and you get an error back &quot;Please provide one or more additional criteria for your search: domain name or keyword, category, or date added.&quot;

The UI from hell.

And THEN they take the &quot;closing soon&quot; auctions off the main page!

		<description>@Sam

I see you&#039;ve added the ability to now list all foreign language domains for sale - that&#039;s great.

Is this the end of your development?

IMO there are 2 key elements missing:

1) You haven&#039;t made any changes to the Domain Search screen, so a prospective buyer still only has the option of choosing between English, German, French or Spanish.
Suppose I wanted to list all Russian domains in the Shopping category.  How would I do that?
When adding a domain for sale, this info is populated (language &amp; category) - so it surely must be easy to add that functionality?

2) And probably the biggest barrier to entry is the User Interface itself, this needs to be multi-lingual to have any chance of success in marketing &amp; selling IDNs to non-English speakers.

Great start so far.  I&#039;m keen to hear your thoughts/plans for the remainder of the implementation.</description>
