Dear all, Just a small "no objection" from my side in the attached documents, to the suggestion to have .eu included as an example (page 3 - comment number 8 - clean version). Moreover, I took the opportunity to add in this context that an unchallengeable policy in terms of confusing similarity throughout the TLD space would be highly desirable. Currently: * When requesting a new ccTLD corresponding to an ISO-code, there is no confusing similarity assessment made at present. If the code is available, it is delegated; * New gTLDs: Soft confusing similarity check. E.g.: Hotels and hotel are not deemed to be confusingly similar; * IDN ccTLDs: Strict confusing similarity check against ISO codes and even gTLDs or applied for gTLDs.
