This domain name comes under this proposal..

Domain Status:LOCKED

I suppose that the question would be whether the auDA would agree that the
ATC would run the domain? I feel that this is not representive of
international fora information.. it's just to specific, tourism is only a
portion of our national interests...

>> At the Accra meeting .info country domain were discussed. I

>> any views on this.
>>
>> Basically without to much detail the GAC and ICANN board
>> resolved that due to the 'special nature' of this gTLD
>> governments (domain administrators) are being given the
>> opertunity to use the specific geographical name i.e.
>> Australia.info, for providing information on international fora.
>>
>> Is the auDA is putting forward an option on this and
>> submitting or particatiting in the forum and discussions.
>>
>> If so; (will we see and drafts that are submitted to the
>> .info Country Names Discussion Group (ICNG)
>>
>> -Does the auDA agree that this would fall into lines with our
>> current domain allocation policies and not cause any
>> hazardous precedents? -Does the auDA have any means to ensure
>> that a site such as this would be representive of factual
>> fora information and how would this be represented to the
>> public and government agencies that visit the site. -Does the
>> auDA feel that any locked names that fall into the cited
>> letter subsection 3.6.3 if .INFO registry agreement? Such as
>> au.info or oz.info. also in the same way would the auDA
>> partition for the names in differing languages? -What
>> information that would be represented on this site?
>>
>> If not,
>>
>> (I would see that this domain space personifies the internet
>> (information
>> age) and would benefit Oz in way that can be developed over
>> time to increase international trade, econemey, travel and
>> governmental relations not to mention many many more thing
>> that any of us here can think of.)
>>
>> -Who would be responsible for representing Oz in this
