Co-opBuy.com applauds the ICANN staff report for concluding
that NCBA's proposal for .co-op is both technically and financially sound and appropriate
including .co-op among the proposed TLD's still under consideration. Co-ops
provide real solutions for people everday. A special purpose TLD will have
cooperatives reach even more consumers to offer goods and services they may otherwise
not have access to. .co-op is truly a domain name that will make a difference
to internet users across the globe.Co-opBuy.com is an internet marketplace soley
developed for the cooperative community for aggregating the purchase of non-strategic
supplies and services. Over 4,300 cooperatives, representing 40 million people,
have signed up to participate in Co-opBuy.com. We look forward to changing
our domain name to Co-opBuy.co-op.
We urge ICANN to approve .co-op as the Special
Purpose TLD that will truly make a difference on the internet.
