Selection of Net Suffixes Defended Vinton G. Cerf, the chairman of
the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers, or
Icann, said that the selection of
new suffixes, also called generic
top-level domains, last fall was
essentially an "experiment." The
objective, he said, was to proceed
slowly and get a "test case" of how
the new domains influence the
market.

But Dr. Cerf admitted that there
was room for improvement. "We
need to re-examine the procedures
that we used," he said.
