Hi all,

Can someone please clarify what a dotless name is?

To me it seems it should be a TLDless name or simply a TLD.

All addresses as I understand it have a '.' at the end (which is added by the browser these days or not needed for some other reason), i.e. 'http://www.opennicproject.org.' so dotless makes little sense to me.

Can anyone enlighten me?

Peter
