Is ibm.nyse.com, dec.nyse, mci.nasdaq.com a problem? This takes the arbitrary decision out of accepting or denying someone access to the .com hierarchy and enforces and already strict naming.
There are two problems I see with this. There are many companies who are privately held, including billion dollar ones. Also, there are companies who have certificates traded on more than one trading place (I know of Japan/US situations.) The more fundamental question is where do you put all the companies that you are now forcing out of .com? Jerry
