<snip>Interesting spam, they claim that .eu ccTLD has been approved by the EU. afaik EU is still not considered as one country and they do not appear in ISO3166 (Country names) which is the reference document for ccTLDs for IANA. There have been rumors about a .eu since years. Does anyone have some "real" informations about that?
There is or will be a .eu domain soon (whatever that means) .eu is not a country, but it has been delegated to the EU; this means it is for the European Union, not Europe.
You could search for it on your favourite search engine;
last time I checked they were evaluating registries applying for beeing the registry.
Then the registrars get approved and people (or companies) being in the EU can
register their domains.
Short version:
- .eu has been assigned to the European Union.
- There will be a registy and a registrar for the TLD
- The spam is spam (the same as the preregistraion spms for .biz ..info ... (you .name it ;-)
