The .DAY Sunrise Period is coming

Google announced the .DAY Sunrise Period:

When:

• Start: 14 December 2021
• End: 24 January 2022

Purpose of the Proposed gTLD:

(what the application says)

Charleston Road Registry is an American company, wholly owned by Google.

The proposed gTLD will provide the marketplace with direct association to the term, ʺday.ʺ The mission of this gTLD, .day, is to provide a dedicated domain space in which registrants can enact second-level domains that relate to memorable, special, or hallmark days and⁄or physical or online events. This mission will enhance consumer choice by providing new availability in the second-level domain space, creating new layers of organization on the Internet, and signaling the kind of content available in the domain. Charleston Road Registry believes that registrants will find value in associating with this gTLD, which could have a vast array of uses. Charleston Road Registry expects these uses may include but are not limited to applications such as birth.day, christmas.day, wedding.day, rememberthat.day, and event.day.

The proposed gTLD will also provide Charleston Road Registry with the means to meet its business objectives.

New gTLDs : fast News

I noticed a few news recently:

• The .CSC dotBrand new gTLD was terminated.
• Two Trademark Claims Period were changed on two Amazon IDN new gTLDs.
• The .BOT new gTLD changes date for its Trademark Claims Period.
•   The .大众汽车 new gTLD was revoked.
• Verisign on .WEB: "VeriSign believes Afilias' application is without merit".
• A Public Accelerator-Incubator announced that it acquired a TLD.
• Google does not factor in TLDs directly when ranking websites. So, your coffee shop will not be penalized for choosing “.coffee”.
• New gTLD updates "for the French": Jovenet.fr

Check all these updates on the new gTLD group I moderate on LikedIn (2,900 subscribers).

Sunrise Period start for .TVS

A new Sunrise Period starts:

• Sunrise Period: 26 October 2021 to 25 November 2021;
• Trademark Claims Period: 29 November 2021 to 27 February 2022.

I thought the .TVS new gTLD was a dotBrand but that is not how it is listed on the ICANN website: "always trust ICANN" ;-)
