Ken Montgomery commented on VALIDATOR-340:
------------------------------------------
I do not need the TLD validation to be optional. I need it to validate against
the current full valid list. This list is updated from time to time. The
solution needs to take this into account and not just add more TLDs to the
hard-coded list. That is only a short time workaround, not a fix.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-340
> Project: Commons Validator
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Framework
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0 Release
> Environment: Live
> Reporter: Ken Montgomery
> Labels: TLD, domains, email
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> The current commons-validator-1.4.0.jar does not include any domains released
> after 2012.
> org.apache.commons.validator.routines.EmailValidator;
> Then on to the method isValidGenericTld(tld)
> Which uses the list
> private static final String[] GENERIC_TLDS = new String[] {
> "aero", // air transport industry
> "asia", // Pan-Asia/Asia Pacific
> "biz", // businesses
> "cat", // Catalan linguistic/cultural community
> "com", // commercial enterprises
> "coop", // cooperative associations
> "info", // informational sites
> "jobs", // Human Resource managers
> "mobi", // mobile products and services
> "museum", // museums, surprisingly enough
> "name", // individuals' sites
> "net", // internet support infrastructure/business
> "org", // noncommercial organizations
> "pro", // credentialed professionals and entities
> "tel", // contact data for businesses and individuals
> "travel", // entities in the travel industry
> "gov", // United States Government
> "edu", // accredited postsecondary US education entities
> "mil", // United States Military
> "int" // organizations established by international treaty
> };
> This list does not include any of the new domains. They are therefore seen as
> invalid.
> See New Domains (about 300)

> I can see that version 1.4.0 is the current version even though it was
> released on 2012-02-03
