but what you think how many such 0.000001% want to apear and hase the same
"right" to do so ??

but consider if bob wants to have .sex what his market share would be ?

and is this than a monopoly ? yes

so it would be better to have monopoly like management of the .sex by some
board of a common organisation-consider the .sex as common good and 
delegate the "rights" to .sex to anybody else who meets specific criteria 
technical and political 

this is allabout we fight the wholle time 

wich is a better model 

the gtld-mou says "common good" versus "privat good" of some others groups
if we accept the "common good" concept as a good STARTING point and use
some civilised methods of discussion and argumentation than we would 
definitely also find end develope a model for "privat good" busines where
it fits very well and not harms the "property" and interest of all of us

a "privat good" should be in "harmony" with our all interests

at least this is my humble personal wish  
(nobody wants to hurt anybody and to prohibit them to be lucky but
 we ALL want to be lucky  isnit ?)
