[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif]DotCities spokesperson Dirk Krischenowski has just given a presentation on a group of City TLD projects that have banded together to form a new GNSO constituency during the GNSO Council meeting here in Mexico.
As INDOM's been hired by the City of Paris to work on .PARIS, I am a strong supporter of the DotCities initiative. The .PARIS project is one of the founding members of the DotCities group, which also includes .BCN (Barcelona), .HAMBURG, .NYC and .BERLIN.
During his presentation, Dirk mentioned other potential City or Regional TLD projects that might be interested in joining the City constituency. These include .KÖLN (for the German city of Cologne (notice their use of an umlaut on the O, indicating that they may intend to apply for an IDN TLD)), .LONDON, .PDX (for the Greater Portland Area), .BOSTON, .CHICAGO, .SEOUL and .TOKYO. Significant proof, I think, that City and Regional TLDs are amongst the most dynamic new TLD initiatives to come out of the new gTLD program.[/FONT]
