I think there is an important point in this bit of humor. If it is decided that a TLD needs to be reserved for the purposes of a protocol, it does not need to be a natural language word from any particular living language. Additionally, it is good to include in the requirements that any name selected should not be one that is in use already, whether by delegation or de-facto, or is in contention elsewhere. It should be a combination of characters that brings no baggage with it. Neologisms like "homenet" are good compromises between human factor understanding and avoidance of problem areas. avri --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
