* It also urged ICANN to manage a six-month comment period so that the international community would get a chance to comment on and object to the chosen IDN ccTLDs, if they seemed at all irrelevant to the ccTLD. This was mostly done to avoid spurious names for ccTLDs.<ref>[http://www.aptld.org/position/APTLD%20Position%20on%20Top%20Level%20Internationalised%20Domain%20Names%20-%20June%2021%202007%20v6.pdf aptld.org]</ref>

==APTLD, CoCCA, and AusRegistry==
In October 2012, [[APTLD]] submitted a comment to [[AuDA]] in support of keeping the longstanding [[.au]] [[ccTLD]] contract with [[AusRegistry]]. [[CoCCA]] withdrew from APTLD after the submission of this proposal, asserting that APTLD backed AusRegistry on the basis of AusRegistry being one of its largest donors. Despite CoCCA's complaints, however, Miller's view seems to be the minority view. Under the consultation of AuDA, numerous other registrars have supported the recommendation for AusRegistry to keep the contract.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/10803-cocca-withdraws-from-aptld-over-support-for-ausregistry-monopoly CoCCA withdraws from APTLD over support for AusRegistry “monopoly”].
