Subject:	coop is really a .org?
Message:
Surely a .cooperative is really a .org? Also, putting a dash in is just plain silly. Keep the TLDs to letters only and it's easier to optimise lookups in name servers by way of hash tables. Adding punctuation is a slippery slope! Paul (speaking as a former senior sysadmin at a very large ISP).
