Current Applicants[edit | edit source]

  1. Tucows - This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here.
  2. Radix (DotOnline Inc.), one of 31 TLDs sought after by the company
  3. Namecheap Inc.
    • It was announced in March 2013, that the above applicants had formed a "team of rivals" to go after the .online TLD. "The three companies each bring significant capital to the table to launch and operate the .online registry. They bring a wealth of experience and capabilities, from registry management to wholesale distribution to retail service. Perhaps most importantly, they bring enormous global reach. Between their wholesale and retail operations, Directi, Tucows and Namecheap combined reach over 40 million small businesses and other hosting customers around the world."[1] Tucows subsequently withdrew their individual application in an apparent move to back one of the other two applicants in their team.
  4. I-REGISTRY Ltd. - FAILED initial evaluation, due to financial responses; requested and passed extended evaluation.[2][3]
  5. Dot Online LLC
  6. Donuts (Bitter Frostbite, LLC), one of 307 applications submitted by Donuts.[4] This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here.

Radix[edit | edit source]

Radix received a GAC Early Warning as an entire applicant, where each one of the applicants was flagged by the U.S. Government. This seems to be the only time a portfolio applicant had all of their applications warned. The issue does not deal with the technical capabilities or thematic content of their applications, but rather the inclusion of an email address associated with the US' Federal Bureau of Investigation. It seems that Radix included correspondence with this address as a recommendation with each of their applications.[5]
