In the abstract, Web architecture is orthogonal to the .com/.org/.net hierarchy, but in practice, I wonder what the impact of this decision will be... Biggest Expansion to Internet in Forty Years Approved for Implementation 26 June 2008 Paris, France: The Board of ICANN today approved a recommendation that could see a whole range of new names introduced to the Internet's addressing system. http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-4-26jun08-en.htm I suppose that in the long-term, a more flat namespace makes sense. And I suppose the proportion of domains that come and go and break links in the web won't be all that much different. p.s. can anybody help me find the actual text of the decision/policy? -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ gpg D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
