I'm not sure I understand the worry here: the document reads perfectly clearly, to my eyes, that other organizations may have something to say about actual TLDs; the draft is only about the _technical_ specification of what may be in the TLD. > According to Section 2 of draft-liman-tld-names-00, the top level domain > label can be numeric only. No: 'and it MUST start with an ASCII "letter"'. Therefore, it can't be numeric only. In another thread I've been playing devil's advocate, attempting to see if there is any argument for weakening that position. So far, none, I'm delighted to say.
