Re: [alac] Analysis of .coop, .museum, and .aero renewals

I'm trying to think up technical or other reasons why ICANN cares if 
there are going to be 20 people in a TLD or 20 thousand. There's the 
money ICANN gets from each domain registration. What else? I suppose 
if a TLD's business fails then someone needs to route traffic while 
people either transition to a new TLD or someone takes in registry 
orphans. Hey maybe that could be a condition of the new .com 
reassignment-- you have to take in emergency failed TLDs for 90 days, 
for free. ;-)
