Hi Marshall,

I have been having a discussion on NANOG about possible problems with
the new Top Level Domains coming out of ICANN. It seems like additional
TLD domains, beyond just the 4 in RFC 2606, should be either reserved or blocked.

Frank posted an I-D to update RFC 2606
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ellermann-idnabis-test-tlds-06

Suggestions include .local (apparently
used heavily by Microsoft), .internal, as well as maybe translations
of .test .example .invalid .localhost into
other languages / character sets.

The I-D has an IDN section. See http://idn.icann.org/ for the example.test names.
