Hi Chris,
	I'll agree with you that ".web" as a generic sounds to me much
betterr (more generic?) than ".shop". I'll agree that a lot of people would
prefer ".web" to ".shop" if only merits are the combination of letters.
Problem with ".web" is this nasty habit of a certain company called IOD to
keep affirming it owns the thing. Unfortunately that will *probably* stop it
from being used in the legacy roots at all.

Yours, John Broomfield.
