June start for .au geographic domain ballots
May 2005
The Australian domain names regulator has
announced it will kick off the ballots for new
geographic domain names in .net.au and .com.au
from next month.
Under current policy the names are not available
on the market, but .au Domain Administration (auDA)
said in March this year it would be making the
names available in bundles. For instance,
williamstownnorth.com.au will be bundled with
williamstown-north.com.au and other variants
Applicants for the names will apply -- facing the
normal criteria -- and be part of a random
selection process for each name bundle. Where only
one applicant applies for a bundle that applicant
will automatically be granted it.
