.au Domain Administration (auDA) invited comment on a public issues paper about the way .au domain names are allocated and used. The paper has been prepared by a Names Policy Panel consisting of nominated members of the Australian Internet community who have expressed interest in helping shape policy for the .au domain space.
The major issue being considered by the panel is whether auDA should allow second level direct registration of domain names under .au (eg. myname.au), something that is recently available in New Zealand (.nz) and the United Kingdom (.uk), among other countries.
