[ga] Re: [ncdnhc-discuss] UN and .un

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Jamie and all,

  Yes this was discussed about two years ago I believe.  I am glad to see
that such and idea has been revisited however.  A .UN TLD would be
most appropriate IMHO.  But I have a few questions as to its creation
and dispensation.

1.) Would such a .UN TLD be strictly non-commercial?  Or should it
be?

2.) Will ICANN be wanting to have another lottery process or bid process
with a $35 - $50k processing and application that is non-refundable
for potential Registries to manage such a TLD?

3.) Will there be Domain Name registration restrictions against sexually
oriented domain names in such a .UN name space?
