The slidedeck presented at the NameCollisions workshop said: "The TLDs .corp, .home and .mail should be permanently reserved"
Yup, we were both there. The new report has more details, notably that when he looked at the traffic for corp.com, which he figured would get traffic from DNS search lists, boy did he ever. I think the word he used was stupendous. Its characteristics suggested that no plausible set of changes would make it stop, or even slow down very much. The domain's owner had done all of the wild card poisoning tricks, none of which made any difference at all.
This is all part of the larger discussions on the IETF handling of RFC6761 / Special Use Names (a topic which will make me start frothing at the mouth, and run my dinner), so I'm going to jsut leave it at that...
At least everyone seems to agree that those are the three names poisoned by existing usage, and there aren't any others with that particular problem.
