    Based on my limited knowledge of Welsh pronounciation (meaning I hear the words Plaid Cymru every 4 or 5 years and nothing else), isn't .CYM way too similar to .COM to be practical? Try telling someone to go to swansea.cym and unless you spell out the TLD (and probably also have to explain where this new extension has come from), they're going to end up at swansea.com.

    Sorry, although I live in england, not the UK, the UK stands for United Kingdom, not just England, and it includes, England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Island.

    well, we couldnt just stop the .uk domains, so england would keep them until .sco and .cym are fully done

    Geeze! No way. .sco is almost palatable even although I don't agree with it as I don't see the need but .ab or .aa? C'mon, geeze a break chief.

    Sorry, what are you on about? .uk domains are for the whole of the United Kingdom, which I stated is scotland, wales and england, not just england.
