UNINETT Norid AS ("Norid") runs the .no registry and maintains the database for all domain names under .no. They are responsible for developing the domain name policy for .no according to the needs of the society and within the framework of the Domain Regulation. Norid's vision and organization are anchored in a strong social responsibility.[1]
They are also responsible for the ccTLDs for .bv (Bouvetøya) and .sj (Svalbard and Jan Mayen), which are, as of Summer 2015, not yet available for domain name registration.[2]
Norid is a member of CENTR.[2]
History[edit | edit source]
In 1987, responsibility for the ccTLD was assigned to the neutral agency UNNINET, after the project's creation the year before. In 1993, UNNINET AS is established as its own corporation, wholly owned by the Ministry of Education and Science and without commercial interests.[3]
The .no project started being referred to as Norid in 1996, which stands for Norwegian service for registration of Internet domain names. In 1998, the advisory body Norpol was formed, and in 1999, Norid operations were transferred from UNINETT to the newly-formed subsidiary, UNINETT FAS AS. Later in 1999, the registrar system was introduced. In 2003, UNINETT Norid AS was established as a subsidiary under UNINETT.
In 2002, Norid participated in a working group under Norway's Ministry of Transport and Communications, where a proposal was created for formalizing the administrative model for the .no domain. The proposal was implemented in 2003 through a Domain Regulation, which in addition to RFC1591, specifies the framework for administration of the .no domain. The model is shown in the diagram below.[4]
By early 2011, half a million domain names had been registered under .no.[5]
In October 2011, Norid raised the number of domain names a company can own from 20 to 100.[6]
Registry Policies[edit | edit source]
The following matrix was developed by NORID, the .no registry, in 2005 and has served the entire ccTLD community to understand how certain policies might considerably contribute to the TLD uptake.[4]
The axes show the correlation and impact of two central aspects that shape the domain name policy:
- Requirements for the applicant
- Provide documentation that he has a right to the name
- Have a local presence in the area of the ccTLD
- Be an organisation
- Number of domain names allowed per applicant
- Limited/Unlimited
