i think he's seen RFC 1034 :-). anyway, i don't see the difference between http://sony/ and http://sony./Neither do any of the browsers I use, which resolve http://bi/ as well as http://dk./ just fine. Whatever problem unqualified TLD names might present to web browsers has been around for a long time and the world hasn't come to an end. The problems with zillions of single-registrant TLDs are more social and economic than technical.
And your technical solution to ensure "http://apple/" always resolves to "apple." and doesn't break people using "http://apple/" to reach "http://apple.example.net/" is? Similarly for "mail user@apple". Mark -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: marka () isc org
