I think that the wider Internet community in Australia will expect these
  new TLDs (a subset if not all) to be implemented as 2LDs under .au.
  
  Then I see a real need for ADNA as the applications to become DNAs roll
  in.
 
If the domains exist as top-level domains, and if IAHC permits multiple
responsible registries/DNAs and somebody wants to be one down here on OZ
then why do we need to tack 3 ascii characters on the end and create a
local variant? 

The net is already flooded with implausibly many name variants, so if we
just got 7 more globally applicable ones, why not use them?

I suggest that people who want to be DNAs apply for IAHC delegated spaces!
