.asia was approved last year I think. I believe he's talking about the new gTLD's. I don't think ICANN has accepted applications yet. You can read the FAQ here:

3. How do I apply for a new gTLD?

There is no gTLD application process open at this time, but work is underway to lead to announcement of a new gTLD application round. A policy development process (see below) is in progress with the aim of creating a standing policy that will guide future introduction of new gTLDs. You can find more information on this process at http://www.icann.org/topics/gtld-strategy-area.html. When this process is complete and a policy has been adopted, ICANN will be able to initiate a new gTLD application process.

9. Can applicants who were not selected in previous rounds re-apply in future rounds?

Yes.

Therefore, I would expect some who were rejected in 2000 may re-apply. Here were the applicants in 2000 of which a few were awarded and a couple more in the 2004 sTLD round:
