VGRS Proposal for a Wait-Listing Service

One of the topics to be considered at the ICANN meeting to be held in Bucharest, Romania, from 24-28 June 2002 is a proposal by VeriSign Global Registry
Services to establish, on a twelve-month trial basis, a "Wait-Listing Service" (WLS) for the .com and .net top-level domains. A detailed topic paper on the proposal has been prepared and posted to prompt discussion. This web-based forum has been established to receive comments from the community.
