==New gTLDs==

As of January, 2012, InternetNZ had declared an interest in applying for [[.kiwi]] though ICANN's [[New gTLD Program|new gTLD program]]. The extension is an interesting bid given that it is a national identifier akin to New Zealand's [[.nz]] [[ccTLD]], but arguably more fun. InternetNZ is not the only organization interested in applying for the extension, as a group of ex-pats based in Vancouver, Canada, have declared their intention to do the same. The latter group is associated with current [[Minds + Machines]] Chairman, and former [[ICANN Board]] [[ICANN Chairman|Chairman]], [[Peter Dengate Thrush]].<ref>[http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/6255747/Dot-Kiwi-to-enhance-patriotic-flavour-of-websites Dot Kiwi to Enahnce Patriotic Flavour, Stuff.co]</ref>
