[cabfpub] Proposal for change of definition of Internal Server Name in the BRs

[Rich Smith]

Just one thing to add.

Internal Server Name: A Server Name that is an Unregistered Domain Name, or an 
IP address included in the three blocks reserved by IANA for private internets 
as defined in RFC1918.

So would it work to amend the definition of ISN and of Registered Domain Name 
to read as follows?



Internal Server Name: A Server Name that is an Unregistered Domain Name.



Registered Domain Name: A Domain Name that has been registered with an 
ICANN-assigned  Domain Name Registrar.



[Unregistered Domain Name: A Domain Name that is not a Registered Domain 
Name.]

This sounds good to me, with Ryan's caveat taken note of. The alternate domain 
names space has multiple competing instances of the same TLD, and they will no 
doubt clash with the new ICANN ones. I think we have to be ICANN-only.
