Unless .eu appears on the proper ISO list at the right time, ICANN is going to have to do some rule twisting to deal with .eu (that is, unless the US Dept of Commerce acts as if it were the US Dept of State and uses its power to dictate .eu into [or out of] existance.)
The competing root community isn't so constrained, it can fire up .eu within minutes of the .eu folks announcing the names and IP addresses of their own name servers.

I firmly believe Dr. Mueller's White Paper on TLD expansion should be implemented *as is* (or with very few, minor revisions) by the end of the year. That would certainly open up the door to registry competition and lower the value of domain names, thereby decreasing competition. The only change I'd make is have 30 new TLDs per year instead of 40.
Dr. Mueller is a genius.
Best,
Doug
