There's to be an expansion of Global Top Level Domains (gTLD), some 20 
more, as well as those we've had for a while -  .com, .edu, .uk , ...  . 
  Previously .xxx was proposed, created a stir, was rejected.  Now 
there's an ICANN *draft* policy paper about how to reject/include a 
top-level domain.  I thought the reasoning was interesting.   Sylvia

"The conclusions of this research and consultations are provided for 
public discussion in order to create an appropriate standard for the new 
gTLD process. Based on legal research and consultations, a set of 
standards is being finalized. It is anticipated that the standard will 
include the three categories of restriction described above. Those 
categories include incitement to violent lawless action, incitement to 
or promotion of discrimination based upon race, color, gender, 
ethnicity, religion or national origin, and incitement to or promotion 
of child pornography or other sexual abuse of children. In addition, it 
may be determined that the panelists should have discretion to sustain 
objections if the panel determines that a proposed TLD name rises to the 
level that it would be contrary to generally accepted legal norms 
relating to morality and public order that are recognized under 
international principles of law. If this decision were made, only senior 
level jurists with expertise in international fora hearing cases 
involving governments and treaty interpretations should be asked to 
participate as panelists in this process."
