because imagine if they do that. 2 days later, big corporations will hire about 200 persons just to register all the TlDS they can imagine. After 3 weeks of TLD registering fight, no TLD will be left. Its ok to register a domain like affordablewebhosting.com but i dont believe that www.domain.affordablewebhosting will be good. There are not a lot of good TLDs My opinion. It's gonna be the ffa if TLD management become Open. it has to be strict with lot of control. This move has to be thinked twice. After, there will be no turning back and it is a big part of the internet future. Cheers all, Steve Poirier [EMAIL PROTECTED] Inet Technologies inc. ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian K.
