In 2003, important new sTLDs began being proposed. While these domains are different from gTLDs in that they are sponsored by a given constituency, this can be seen as another way in which the wider community was pressing for a greater variety of domain space. Applications came from .asia, .xxx, .net, .cat, .mobi, .jobs, and .travel.[1]; they all went on to approval in 2005-2006, except for the controversial .xxx,[2] which went through a much more contentious and drawn out process but was still approved in March, 2011 at ICANN 40.[3]
