What are the official requirements of .ER domain names?
Little is known about the rules and regulations of .ER domain names as the domain name itself is relatively new and IANA has not delegated authority of the domain yet.
Are certain domain names going to be reserved?
Yes. The following are presumably how the domain names are going to be broken down/categorized: * com.er = for commercial organizations
* edu.er = for academic/educational organizations
* gov.er = for governmental organizations
* mil.er = for military organizations, empty zone unchanged since August 2004
* net.er = for networking organizations
* org.er = for non-governmental organizations
* ind.er = unknown, empty zone unchanged since August 2004
* rochest.er = (lame delegation - delegated servers have no such zone)
* w.er = unknown (mx record only, unchanged since 2005)
