Jim, I don't know if I qualify as one of the folks who "really operate the Internet", but I'd like to point out that we have customers who would like to have a readable, logical domain name and willing to be outside of ".com". Each of these domains seems to be well-thought out and I don't think they will be any shortage of users or candidate registries. If you need to know that there will be a registry for each new gTLD, then I'm willing to run any of them that cannot otherwise find a home. /John - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
