Yes. I’m sincerely hoping that some benevolent force takes .local before Mac users are screwed.
Also, my super-secret-internal-domain-of-doom is now in danger of conceivably being in use in real life.

Your not kidding.
Lets see..
.localhost
.localdomain
.local
.1 in UTF-8
.google
.yahoo
.icann’sLostIt
.microsoft
.exe
.com
.bat
For years ICANN has fought against more root level TLDs for a good reason. Its a BAD idea.

Yes, until they realized they could get $10,000 a piece from them…
If I remember correctly, they can ge 64 characters long, too. No shortage of those anytime soon.
/sigh

How about .not? That’s what some people have been calling a certain pervasive MS technology for a long time now.
