Hi,

I was going to say two things at the mic before we ran out of time.

First, that I agree with Ralph on his comments about requirements.

Second, as Stuart pointed out, use is already being made of .home, e.g. it’s 
used by BT in the UK. There are articles online that suggest 500M hits/day to 
the roots for .home, and that .home is the heaviest used unallocated TLD. Which 
I assume is in no small part why ICANN chose to not allocate the TLD, instead 
marking it (and .corp) as a “high risk” TLD, due to existing use. For an 
example, see 
http://domainincite.com/13773-home-gets-half-a-billion-hits-a-day-could-this-put-new-gtlds-at-risk.
  Of course *how* .home is being used is another question, but it’s effectively 
not allocatable elsewhere.

Tim
