They are just as relevant today as they were two years ago.  Indeed, the need
for a standard definition is as important today as it ever was.  Which is
probably why ICANN and the IETF shy away from establishing a fixed
definition.  As log as the ontology of domain names remains unfixed, those
who have power/influence over the DNS and its management can do pretty much
what they like...

Are we closer to a definition?  Not if "we" leave it up to ICANN.
