Things can change. It is ALWAYS a bad idea to use namespace not delegated to you. Unless, of course, Ed's draft progresses and the user assigned ISO codes are turned into private use TLDs (similar to RFC 1918 turning 10/8, etc., into private use address space). The only way the user assigned codes could be delegated would be if: a) ISO reverses their policy for those codes and assigns them to countries b) The IETF revises name assignment policy and demands they be delegated c) The ICANN community revises name assignment policy and allows them to be delegated I'm quite confident that (c) will never occur -- too many parts of the ICANN community would reject the idea instantaneously and given the new gTLD program, there is simply no reason for the question to even come up. Similarly, I'm reasonably confident the IETF won't demand those labels be delegated -- I can't see a reason why a different solution would be sufficient. Where I don't have as much confidence is in ISO-3166/MA's actions, but that's mostly because I don't know how they work. Regards, -drc
