Does anyone know how if the new gTLD system will still give some "veto" power to some people over some domain names that are morally objectable to some people ?
See pages 17 - 20 of https://par.icann.org/files/paris/gTLDUpdateParis-23jun08.pdf
Is it fair to hand .ABC to either one of the two ? (highest bidder) or will ICANN "lock" .ABC out so that neither can get to it ? I am sure there are many such gTLDs around the world that would conflict across countries.

Finally, will there be any performance impact on DNS servers around the world (thinking of caching issues) ?
Extremely unlikely (IMHO). Regards, -drc
