NEW GROUP FORMED FOR UNOFFICIAL INTERNET TLD OWNERS

A GROUP OF Internet TLD (top-level domain) holders have
 formed a nonprofit association to prevent what they
 fear will become a splintered Internet domain naming system.

 The new group, the Top Level Domain Association (TLDA -
http://www.tlda.org),
 announced Wednesday that it will begin accepting
 membership applications Saturday from an estimated 200
 operators of some 500 TLDs around the world.
