The Domain Name System of the Internet consists of a set of top-level domains which constitute the root domain of the hierarchical name space and database. In the growth of the Internet, it became desirable to expand the set of initially six generic top-level domains in 1984. As a result new top-level domain names have been proposed for implementation by ICANN. Such proposals included a variety of models ranging from adoption of policies for ''unrestricted gTLDs'' that could be registered by anyone for any purpose, to ''chartered gTLDs'' for specialized uses by specialized organizations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=ICANN )〕 In October 2000, ICANN published a list of proposals for top-level domain strings it had received.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=TLD Applications Lodged )〕 ==Geographic proposals== * .geo - Generic geographical locations. * .wien - Vienna. * .lat - General category for Latin American websites. * .africa - General category for African websites. * .ln and .le - Currently being sold by Dennis Hope's "Lunar Embassy Commission" alongside .lunar, .moon, .venus, .mars, .jupiter, .saturn, .uranus, .neptune, .pluto, .space. People who purchase novelty deeds for outer space property from him are also given free domains. None of these TLDs are supported at present by root servers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Proposed top-level domain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
