Hello , http://www.icann.org/tlds/new-stld-rfp/new-stld-application-parta-15dec03.htm The proposed new sTLD must create a new and clearly differentiated space, and satisfy needs that cannot be readily met through the existing TLDs. One purpose of creating new TLDs is to enhance competition in registry services and applicants must demonstrate that their proposal: * Is clearly differentiated from existing TLDs; * Meets needs that cannot reasonably be met in existing TLDs at the second level; * Attracts new supplier and user communities to the Internet and delivers choice to end users; and * Enhances competition in domain-name registration services, including competition with existing TLD registries. The second and fourth bullets seem to conflict. -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Chair, W3C SVG Working Group Member, W3C Technical Architecture Group
