Here are the Top 20 DLDs (Dash Level Domains)
that are currently in use by tens of thousands of
companies on the legacy IPv4 Internet.
It looks like WEB is near the top of both lists. In my opinion,
if ICANN decides to add .WEB as a TLD to the legacy
root name servers, people will have to resolve what happens
to all of the prior use rights of the -WEB.com owners.
There are more than 4 thousand of them, and I do not see
them actively participating in these discussions or represented.

P.S. It is also interesting to note that NAME-SPACE.COM
uses the DLD....-SPACE...I wonder how much that had
to do with the "vote results" from name-space.com ?
BTW....there were 267 -SPACE.com owners, last count...
