I support Andrew Sullivan's version: "TLDs are often divided into ccTLDs and gTLDs; the division is a matter of policy in the root zone, and beyond the scope of this document." Would you support Ed Lewis’ modification of that text into this? "TLDs are often divided into ccTLDs, gTLDs and other categories; the division is a matter of policy in the root zone, and beyond the scope of this document.” I agree with the comments on the list that specifying only ccTLDs and gTLDs is later going to leave it open for someone to say that “qTLDs” or whatever are special in a different way and need different treatment, etc. The key point here is that from the DNS *protocol* level “TLDs” are what matters. All the other distinctions of the various types of TLDs don’t (at the current time, anyway) affect how the operations really work.
