Subject:	dot REG is a certificate of authentication
Message:
>It will be easier to have an UNREG TLD The world does not evolve JUST around trademarks you know. The DNS was never meant to be, nor can it be a TradeMark System. >Your idea is not too bad, just driving the well established businesses into a no-body-care-corner, so called .REG. It is NOT into a corner - you can KEEP and USE your dot COMs. dot REG is a certificate of authentication. >Who knows what it means. Customers know what (tm) means - else why put it after trademark word? Just minor publicity will tell them it is same as (tm) and guarentees source.
