You want a clean unpolluted name space? I understand how I could pollute the
environment, but how could I pollute a name space? What is a failed Domain, why
should domains shut down? Make the name space big and don't try to keep it clean,
which is not possible.
It's the first time that new TLDs are introduced. I don't think it will work very
well with a few new TLDs. But the elected directors will not have the chance to
discuss this.

Technically? Don't know exactly, but it would work. Look at http://name-space.com.

I have no answer which new TLDs are the best. I like the idea of introducing many (>
100 or >1000) new TLDs.
