Subject:	It is illegal - sorry
Message:
These terms have legal significance and it is typically illegal to use them unless the registering entity actually is "incorporated", a "limited liability company", a "public listed company", etc. Verifying this would require pre-screening activities by domain name registrars (as is the case in the UK with plc.uk and ltd.uk). It was thought preferable to avoid gTLDs with specific pre-screening requirements at this time.
