Timeline of ICANN's efforts at stability:
August 2000: "Successful TLD applications should 'preserve the stability of the Internet': They should eliminate or minimize the effects of technical failures in
registry or registrar operations, and they should steer clear of anything that challenged ICANN’s position as proprietor of the root zone. Staff will favor TLDs that help advance the “proof of concept” ICANN sought, providing useful information regarding the feasibility and utility of different types of new TLDs, procedures for launching them, registry-registrar models, business models, and internal policy structures."<ref>[http://www.icann.org/tlds/tld-criteria-15aug00.htm Criteria for Assessing TLD Proposals (Aug. 15, 2000)]</ref><ref>[https://arxiv.org/ftp/cs/papers/0109/0109099.pdf Jonathan Weinberg, "ICANN, 'Internet Stability,' and New Top Level Domains,' footnote 72]</ref>
