Probably first came first served, but …
Dear Icann,
The first time I saw extension domain name of my country (Comoros islands) I was chocked. Because it is .KM pronounced ”dat key Aim” instead of .com. Why?
It is not fair to give our original extension to all the world without thinking that will be acceptable to comorian citizens. Because all of things are about money, I propose you to give 0,5% of the amount of each domain name sold in order to help Comoros Islands to develop its Internet. The funds can be controlled by mixed organization international and national all of them will dedicate to IT educational programs. I beg all internautes to support this idea by forwarding this message. This is a king og sustain development.
