Re: [ga] ICANN's Brave New World of Tiered Pricing for Top Level Domain Names

You open the mail, though, and see a renewal notice for your domain

Sign up with .ewe and you pay a one time fee (probably will be on the order of $25) and you have the name as long as there is a .ewe registry.


But you'll have to pay for services - like for when you want to update those NS records or when you want to unpublish the name for a while (oh, the ICANN TLDs don't have the concept of holding a name but not necessarily putting it into the zone file? Sigh, how primitive.)

But then again, ICANN won't allow .ewe into the root zone. Thus, because I don't fit into ICANN's business and fee model, my enterprise is condemned never to be born.

And I'd like to know what legal authority ICANN has to deny me entre into the domain name marketplace?
