We,KRNIC(Korea Network Information Center) intend to state opposite views from '.tel' TLD proposals. 
 
The following are three reasons which we base on.
 
The first is a view from the side of current ENUM status.
Up to now, ENUM has not yet been activated and organized completely.
e164.arpa is in charge of official management of ENUM TLD, and
Tier1 delegation to each country has not yet been over.
Therefore, the appearance of '.tel' TLD is most likely to
confuse ENUM address system.
 
The second is a view from the side of user.
An internal transaction of ENUM can't be seen by users, who see only the result of ENUM service.
For example, if one ENUM domain registers in .tel DNS and .e164.arpa DNS differntly,
user who doesn't know whether it uses .tel or e164.arpa can get the unitended data from ENUM.
So, the creation of .tel is likely to violate the uniqueness and globalization of ENUM.
 
The third is a view from the side of registrant.
If a conflict regarding registration occurs among the users, it will perhaps not be resolved easily because
the management of '.tel' domain is under the private company which might not follow the standardization of ENUM
conflict resolution which is under discussion.
 
For these reasons, the creation of '.tel' should be disapproved.
 
Sincerely yours
