I expect ICANN to throw a tantrum and declare all single-letter TLDs "reserved", but we should not care. I could support a .o. TLD.

I've been looking into single letter TLDs and there's both no technical reason they don't work and an incredibly low chance ICANN will start using them since they don't have any policies that allow their delegation, so they have those two things going for them.

I personally don't really like .onic but I support ".o" especially since it'd be a very OpenNIC specific domain as you mentioned.
