1) .reg with comany name,  REQUIRES the country and classification so as not to confuse it with others: suggest - name.class.country.reg

2) These ALL would have to be used in place of above, else cause confusion. Above is much better IMO.
   .rcom could be name.class.country.rcom (class still required), instead of above.
   .rnet could be name.country.rnet instead of name.net.country.reg
   .rorg could be name.country.rorg instead of name.org.country.reg

3) .rweb and system used for all new gTLDs, like I say in 2 above is not as good IMO as option 1. This is because .REG acts like a tab of authentication and is not ambiguous.

4) So you are saying name.country.class instead of .REG? - I still think .REG best. It is easy for consumer to understand that it is a trademark - as is anything with (tm) after name.

5) Its certainly different - companies sharing something. It does not address the classification problem.

There is no trademarked area, as such. It is the solution that gives them a tag, to stop the stupid laws - that allow companies to use their trademarks for anti-competitive purposes (which is illegal).

And stop them stealing domains off their legitimate owner (which the have made legal).

They could still use dot COMs for advertising purposes. Then the consumer can see they have got the tag of .REG as proof of trademark.

Simps!

The open area is anywhere the Internet - which is what it is meant to be. Green fields for all to use.
