I’m in strong favor of increasing the amount of TLDs we operate, there’s no reason to limit them, it’s an arbitrary restriction some people enjoy placing on our network. I am definitely opposed to people just coming out of the blue and thinking they can just get a TLD however, because it actually requires some effort and long-term planning—TLDs are supposed to last forever, and frankly with the latest submissions I’ve seen, I don’t have strong faith in these operators to stick around if/when they get bored. 

That being said, I’d be happy to approve more TLDs, I just want some kind of proof that the operators doing these proposals will actually be able to deliver.

Indeed, everyone and their brother wants a TLD now. I mean it's a good thing we have increased interest in OpenNIC, but before proposing TLDs we need the infrastructure and commitment per our recent votes on policy changes.

It sounds like this person wants multiple TLDs, but perhaps instead of voting one-by-one he should list the remaining TLD ideas he has into a single discussion thread, and have a single voting thread where we vote on each TLD. Anyone agree that's a better idea?
