The Applicants Guide Book referenced was for use with the "Class of 2012". A revised AGB will undoubtedly be prepared for the next round of new gTLDs (if one does occur), taking into account lessons learned. I would guess it is _extremely_ likely that if the IETF were to define a list of top-level labels that were reserved for "technical uses", the ICANN community would incorporate that into the new version of the AGB. After all, if the community didn't, I suspect it'd be cause for the exercise of termination clause of RFC 2860. Regards, -drc (speaking only for myself)
