Re: Preregistration of 7 new TLDs - 1)who does it? 2) is it legal

[Philippe Landau]

>3) is a preregistration fee legal?
a fee yes, but the associated claims not always.
the "new" domains exist in alternative roots,
but if the legacy root servers will adopt them is another question.

>4) does preregistration conform with ICANN policies?
they don't care and can only *propose* new domains.
