I doubt that the creation of .ing is intentionally trying to derail the
OpenNIC project. More likely, it was just a lack of concern for it,
perhaps through ignorance.

The entity which filed the application for .ing is Charleston Road
Registry, which is basically Google, but with a name change to meet
ICANN policy.

How many .ing domains are there? Do you think that Google could be
convinced to "grandfather" the already registered domains?
