.vin is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program, the string translates as "wine" from French. The applicant is Donuts (Holly Shadow, LLC).[1]
The application received 2 GAC Early Warnings, from France and Luxembourg. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[2]
The warnings are nearly identical and state that the applicant should consider withdrawal or implement an objection procedure to consider geographical indications, as "vin" is a term that is strictly and clearly defined by French and European law.[3]
Donuts replied to France´s warning to .vin, and its similar objections for .health, .sarl, .hotel, and .architect, with an impassioned defense of the validity of open registration for New gTLDs. They even to quote the GAC's own advice with regards to its contract with .xxx registry provider, ICM Registry, which notes that at that time the GAC was against any monitoring of TLD content given that it seems to overstep ICANN's technical mandate.[4]
