href="mailto:ias_pk@yahoo.com">ias_pk@yahoo.com</a>> writes<br>> My reply to your remarks is as follows:<br>> Imran<br><br>>> If it wished to, a registry could only issues second level domains "internally", just as they only issue third level names internally at the moment (as an outsider, you can't force IBM to issue you with an email address of imran.ibm.com, only organisations in the business of supplying Internet Services do that).<br>> <br>> Yes, I also saying the same thing that the usage (sales of new domain names) of these new TM/branded registries will be very limited, subscription will be allowed to only concerning members of the group mean limited domain names subscribed/registered each year.<br><br>Normally they'll only be used for "internal" purposes I agree. But some may also be distributed to the public.<br><br>Perhaps we'll see <a ymailto="mailto:roland@mail.google"
href="mailto:roland@mail.google">roland@mail.google</a> as well as <a ymailto="mailto:roland@googlemail.com" href="mailto:roland@googlemail.com">roland@googlemail.com</a>?<br><br>> New gTLDs with general name script give a good return of investment mean less<br>> cost offered to public for domain name registration, if it is that is good and<br>> widely acceptable.<br><br>Many years ago I was responsible for choosing UKonline[1] as the name for the first true consumer ISP in the UK, which we did despite UKonline.com belonging to a random manufacturer called (if I remember correctly) United Kinetics. (Several years later the British Government stole the name for their citizens online project!)<br><br>If .UKonline had been available in 1995 I'm sure we'd have jumped at it, and used it for customer email addresses. But we would not have charged for a sub domain.<br><br>[1] Compared to America Online (AOL) and Europe Online (an online service, no
relation to the current company, as far as I know).<br>-- Roland Perry<br>____________________________________________________________<br>You received this message as a subscriber on the list:<br> <a ymailto="mailto:governance@lists.cpsr.org" href="mailto:governance@lists.cpsr.org">governance@lists.cpsr.org</a><br>To be removed from the list, visit:<br> <a href="http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing" target="_blank">http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing</a><br><br>For all other list information and functions, see:<br> <a href="http://lists.cpsr.org/lists/info/governance" target="_blank">http://lists.cpsr.org/lists/info/governance</a><br>To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see:<br> <a href="http://www.igcaucus.org/" target="_blank">http://www.igcaucus.org/</a><br><br>Translate this email: <a href="http://translate.google.com/translate_t"
