.govt.nz vs parliament.nz?
I agree that Parliament 'legally' is separate (and equal) to 'government' but I think 99% of the population does not really realise this and in fact care. I have not yet seen all the material that NZOC was presented about the parliament.nz application and perhaps this was addressed.

Many things are simplified for ease of the many at the expense of the few and I thinkt his should have been one of them. I think we have now reached the 'tipping point' for 2LD applications in NZ.

Anyone for parlemont.nz? :-)

NZOC recommends parliament.nz be approved
I fired off some emails about the NZOC meeting and in the end got one back from Frank March, NZOC Chair (I guess I should have emailed him first :-)

In response to my 'what occurred for parliament.nz' request Frank sent a detailed update which I have placed online but the lead sentence is the key one:

NZOC agreed to recommmend to Council at its next meeting on 28 October that .parliament.nz be established as a moderated second level domain.

I understand several trees were used to outline the application, supporting material and the background for the new members on NZOC (Andy Linton and Chris Streatfield).
