The Internet's key oversight agency issued preliminary guidelines
Wednesday for the introduction of hundreds, perhaps thousands,
of alternatives to ".com" in the first sweeping changes to the
network's 25-year-old address system.

The application fee is expected to approach $200,000
partially refundable only in limited circumstances to help cover
the potential $20 million cost of crafting the guidelines
and reviewing applications.
