Nominet, the registry for the [[.uk]] [[ccTLD]] is in the news for its proposal to open up registrations for the English [[ccTLD]] and the [[Second Level Domain|second level]]. The registry is also the selected registry provider for the proposed [[.wales]] and [[.cymru]] [[GeoTLDs]]. Learn more about these issues and other background information :

'''[[Nominet]]''', the registry for the [[.uk]] [[ccTLD]] is in the news for its proposal to open up registrations for the English [[ccTLD]] and the [[Second Level Domain|second level]], currently, only [[Third Level Domain|third level]] registration is available. So, the proposed change could allow ''domain.uk]] exist rather than ''domain.co.uk'' or ''domain.org.uk''. The proposed registration policy changes to go along with the new space have already been responded to by [[Michele Neylon]], of Irish [[registrar]] [[Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd]], as seeming to be heavily influenced by suggestions from law enforcement within the context of ongoing discussions in [[ICANN]] over the [[Registrar Accreditation Agreement]].

Nominet is is also the selected registry provider for the proposed [[.wales]] and [[.cymru]] [[GeoTLDs]], and it was also recently noted that the websites for the proposed new strings seem to feature poor Welsh grammar, and are possibly a product of Google translate or a similar service. Nonetheless, the company has previously promised to eventually expand beyond its English-centric operations to include an office in Wales with Welsh -speaking staff. ''Read More.. [[Nominet]] ...
