Roy et al -

Is there a document from ICANN taking a position on the assignment of TLDs based on  ISO3166 assignments?

When Jon was doing this he was adamant about following their lead - rather than having to make political decisions about what was a country.  The main role he had was not the selection of the TLDs, but making sure that the delegations went to the right organizations related to the countries indicated by the TLD.   I would say that ICANN should probably have the same role.

Given that ISO has indicated a range of specifically NOT issued 2 letter codes, and that these codes will never (should never?) be added to the root zone, I would suggest that it's probably not an ICANN role to weigh in on this interpretation.

That said, I'd prefer it if the document selected a few (<=10) codes from these ranges so that filtering may be built into various servers and clients to prevent leakage.

Later, Mike

It is difficult for me to take a position on the adoption of this draft as I 
don't have enough information to do that.  I have a few questions:

I took a quick look at the draft.  There is a request to Public Technical 
Identifiers in Section 6.  Isn't that beyond DNS operations?
This request has been removed from draft -02.

Warmly,

Roy
