| | New top level domains could be created to enhance competition and to enable the new corporation to evaluate the functioning, in the new environment, of the root server system and the software systems that enable shared registration. | | | Domain names are the familiar and easy-to-remember names for Internet computers (e.g., "www.ecommerce.gov"). | | | The Green Paper proposed moving the system for registering second level domains and the management of generic top-level domains into a competitive environment by creating two market-driven businesses, registration of second level domain names and the management of gTLD registries. |

| | Top-level domains |
| | Domain name registries around the world is a highly comprehensive list of TLD registries maintained by the.NO domain registry. | | | In the end, ICANN obtained control of the top level domains, replacing IANA with a body that is somewhat more open to outside input (if you are a government or represent large business). | | | One proposal to regulate other registries at the top level was originally formalised as the gTLD-MoU. |

| | New top level domains considered harmful - Design Issues |
| | The Internet is a net, and the WWW is a Web, but WWW and email use DNS which is a tree, which has a single root. | | | And because the DNS tree is so fundamental to the Internet applications which build on top of it, any uncertainty about the future creates immediately instability and harm. | | | However, the domain name is perhaps the worst possible way of communicating information about the device. |

| | The Generic Top Level Domain Memorandum of Understanding (gTLD-MoU) is the international governance framework in which policies for the administration and enhancement of the Internet's global Domain Name System (DNS) are developed and deployed. | | | We only selected seven as an initial number since given that the DNS is critical to the operation of the Internet, we thought it prudent to define initial changes on a relatively modest scale, with later evaluation and modification as appropriate. | | | The intellectual property community was especially adamant that the viability of the dispute resolution processes being implemented under the gTLD-MoU be demonstrated before further expansion of the top level domain space. |
