Summary and Analysis of Comments for: One and Two-Character ASCII .TEL
Domain Names Proposed Amendment
 
Summary:
 
The comment period was open from 10 October to 11 November 2010. Two
comments were received; one was supportive and the second was not relevant
to the proposed amendment. All comments can be viewed at:
http://forum.icann.org/lists/tel-one-and-two-char-domains/index.html
 
Analysis:
 
Jothan Frakes supports the approval of one and two-character domain names in
.TEL because there are already other gTLDs that had have this restriction
lifted. Jothan also commented that this restriction is a concept worth
evolving from, as it is dated and no longer necessary.
 
Next Steps:
 
ICANN will consider approval of the proposed amendment to the .TEL
Agreement, taking into account the comments received.
