Please do not use "tech". Some EPP extensions already uses tech, albeit
in a "contact" related namespace, that is they have
<contact:tech>FOOBAR</contact:tech>
instead of this other form that some may prefer:
<domain:contact type="tech">FOOBAR</domain:contact>

So this falls in the kind of same problem of (non technical but possible 
confusing) collision.

And more generally, "tech" is too short to convey enough meaning just by itself.

In general I also fail to see what we gain by using short names.
Why not application, technology and operationSystem if you want all those 
details?
