Registries to launch their official web sites

Some more potential Registries are launching their websites:

1. .AIRFORCE : www.dotairforce.com;
2. .ARMY : www.dotarmy.net;
3. .DEMOCRAT : www.dotdemocrat.net;
4. .NAVY : www.dotnavy.net;
5. .NINJA www.dotninja.co;
6. .REPUBLICAN www.dotrepublican.net;
7. Many more are to launch soon...

Some of these applications had GAC Early Warnings raised which means the Top-Level Domain applied for (the domain name extension) may not see the day.

Today is "The Draw"

Today is an important day for all applicants of the new gTLD process since the Draw will determine the order by which applications will move through the remaining stages of the new gTLD program.

The Prioritization Draw is an equitable and fair way to order the release of initial evaluation results for all new gTLD applications.

It is possible to watch this event online, a live stream will be available on the ICANN web site today: 17 December 2012 at 1:00 PM PST.
