RE: [ga] Interesting WIPO ruling re: NewZealand.biz
Domain Name Registration Policies themselves set forth, generally, that the
.INT gTLD is meant exclusively for international organizations created by
international treatises, and that the .ORG domain name is only for
non-profit organizations. That's your basis.
To understand whether or not an organization in international (as opposed to
transnational), you must refer to its constitutient charter.

ummmmm I have a bit of trouble following this discussion. Can you tell me
what
law (either national law, treaty or regulation enacted under some sort of
multilateral agreement) must be conformed to in order to preclude someone
international organization from registering in .org?
Come to think of it...what would define an international organization as
such in
the first place? The Who play all over the world. Are they an international
organization? The Canadian Relief Fund for Chernobyl VIctims in
Belarus(CRFCCB)
is based in Canada. Are they an international organization?
