Patrick:
 
Thanks for the link. For additional countries and their corresponding
ccTLDs that have geographic reservations/exclusions please refer to
Paragraph 261 of the WIPO II report copied below:
 
261.   Finally in connection with place names, it may also be noted that
several ccTLD administrators have adopted the policy of excluding the
names of places in their countries from registration as domain names, at
least under certain conditions.  This is the case, for instance, for .AU
(Australia),[261]
<http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/processes/process2/report/html/report.html#_
edn261>  .CA (Canada),[262]
<http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/processes/process2/report/html/report.html#_
edn262>  .CH (Switzerland), .DZ (Algeria),[263]
<http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/processes/process2/report/html/report.html#_

edn265>  .PE (Peru),[266]
<http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/processes/process2/report/html/report.html#_
edn266>  and .SE (Sweden).[267]
<http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/processes/process2/report/html/report.html#_
edn267>   Often these exclusions are based on official lists of place
names compiled by the Government of the country concerned.[268]

Thanks Patrick.  This seems particularly applicable to the subgroup on
Geographical and Geopolitical names although the principle of time
limits could be included in recommendations we make for reserved names
in other categories as well.
