New Top Level Domain Names

["Danna Humphreys" <danna@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sirs:

 

I believe it would be most helpful and logical to allow new top-level domain
names based upon the 3 letter city codes used for airports.  For example, in
my city of Oklahoma City the code would be OKC.

 

This would have numerous advantages:

1.      These abbreviations are widely recognized by the public and easily
understood
2.      This would open up multiple domain names which are now blocked by
the dependence on .com
3.      I see no reason why use of a common-sense domain name for a business
located in Oklahoma (for example, businessname.okc) should conflict with
that of another business located in Dallas, TX (businessname.DAL) or
Australia (businessname.au)

 

Sincerely,

 

Kirk Humphreys

Former Mayor of Oklahoma City (1998-2003)
