Subject: Re: ICANN to allow commercial gTLDs From: Owen DeLong <owen () delong com> MacDonald's would likely get title to .macdonalds under the new rules, right? Well... Which MacDonald's? 1. The fast food chain 2. O.C. MacDonald's Plumbing Supply 3. MacDonald and Sons Paving Systems 4. MacDonald and Madison Supply Company 5. etc.
Easy to resolve (excuse the pun) _that_ one. The _senior_ claimant to that domain would be Clan MacDonald, of Scotland. Who gets 'apple'? Apple (the computer company), Apple (the record company)? How about the 'fruit of the month' club? Now, if you want a _hard_ problem, who gets to register 'YellowPages' ? <*EVIL* grin>
