John, yes, I've been paying attention to the TLD space since Chris Ambler
*first* put in his .web proposal -- what is that; 15 years now? 20?
This is the first I've heard of *the possibility of TLD registrars being
end-user internal/exclusive*.
People have made jokes about company TLDs in the past, sure, but no, I
never heard any specific discussion about it actually happening; I invite
citations.
Cheers,
