Current Applicants
- Donuts (Blue Tigers, LLC) - This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here.
- Key GTLD Holding Inc, the applicant also submitted an application for the alternate spelling, .theatre. [3]
Key GTLD Holding Inc
Key GTLD Holding Inc's application was issued a GAC Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, Heather Dryden. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[4]
The warning states that the applicant is "seeking exclusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition.[5]
