What will happen to the names that are registered via the testbed after the conclusion of the testbed period?
Domain names registered during the testbed will be treated just like any other ASCII domain name. However, revisions to the Internet draft documents may require encoding changes from the internal representation of the early testbed names to the internal representation of the final approved protocol. If conflicts or collisions occur upon encoding conversion, which may result in the loss of a registration, those problematic names will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Current assessment of the IETF Internet draft documents does not indicate that this will be a problem.
