If it is of any help to you, .TRAVEL was started
in the mid-90's (1996?) about the same time as .BIZ and .WEB .WEB of course failed in the early market trials .BIZ continues to progress
You seem to **give** ICANN a lot more credit or
responsibilities than ICANN has, or likely wants.
ICANN was created by the U.S. Government only to
do PROOF-OF-CONCEPT market-trials for TLDs. .TRAVEL is different from .NET because there is
not a well-organized base of 5,000,000+ million
name owners. The .TRAVEL names will evolve one
at a time as .TRAVEL grows and as consumers begin
to discover it has been around a long time, just
like .BIZ
As an aside, you might be interested to note that
because of ICANN's poor track record in doing
the market trials, many consumers are not aware
of anything but .COM. ICANN has not enforced the
TLD proof-of-concept contracts with respect to
the amount of money promised to be spent on
advertising and marketing. Companies lie their
way in and then change the rules to suit their
needs. ICANN can attempt to lie and claim they
are not just doing proof-of-concept TLDs, but
the history and documents do not reflect that.
