[[--Translated text (es -> en)--]] Subject: Internet Architecture Board Vs. gTLDs without point From: apisanty@gmail.com Colleagues, aquuna a few months ago we held discussion on the possibility proposed by some proponents of new gTLDs that can hese operate without point. This will want to say that something like http://cocacola llevaraa the registration webpage awarded. In many browsers not even typed http:// (quin already do today?) but only Coke. At the time our position, transmitted ALAC, was contrary to this option. Today, the Internet Architecture Board, in , Has published a detailed analysis also against. There can be no better entity authorized this IAB to say in the matter. It is possible that in the coming weeks we see an intense debate this issue, since "no point domains" are proposed by companies as Google. The matter could be reconsidered. It is important to pay attention, especially by those who attend to or follow distance the meeting of ICANN in Durban. It will be important to know the view of those among us have ESTN supported or supporting proposals for new gTLDs, if any.
