Actually I do, and I am also aware that a large number of TLD's in other
name spaces to the legacy root have no to very few 2LD's under them.
However, my reference to a rush was related to the TLD's themselves.  It is
not difficult to set up a root server and to establish a TLD.  No more
difficult than setting up a few name servers.  If there was the possibility
of having a TLD recognised by ICANN with little effort, I'm sure a large
number of people would jump at the chance.  The biggest difficulty in
establishing a TLD in any name space is to get the clients.
