Move over .ac, here comes .eu ICANN APPROVES EU TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN Directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) approved use of .eu as a country-code top-level domain for use by European Union countries. EURid officials, who will manage the registry for .eu, expect the U.S. Department of Commerce to approve the decision shortly. The introduction of .eu is not expected to affect use of already popular country codes such as .de for Germany or .uk for the United Kingdom.

Prior restraint With hope, they'll have the common sense to restrict .edu.eu in the same way that Educause now restricts .edu in the U.S.
