RE: [wg-c] telephone numbers in domain names.

Bob,

Having worked with telcos and standarization bodies in that field, I found
that the telephone numbers on Internet is much more political than the
technical management of the DNS (yes, it's possible).

Many people from internet are seing that as a capture from the telcos of the
Internet.

Dear Colleagues:

I was really surprised when ICANN rejected every application that sounded 
like it could be a phone number.

Look at this:
