[ga] On Bill's post about ICANN
Hypothetical situation apllying to the approval of
new TLDs.
An organization such as the DNSO or the GA or
another organization that does not yet exist would first handle new TLD
applications to decide their marketability, potential conflicts in recognition
from a non-technical standpoint, usability, and end-user satisfaction, among
other criteria. Once approv ed by this body, it would then go to ICANN and it's
SOs to review the technical aspects of the introduction of the new
TLD.
ICANN could not refuse an approved TLD unless it
would definitely threaten the stability of the Internet or create some other
technical problem such as length, characters it contains, or other
problems.
I see this as viable. Anyone else?
