Exactly why I left four options.
But - it's not a binary question (all/1 or none/0) - we have the grey areas reduce, keep the same, or expand (maybe I should have left 5 options?).
It's clear that if we do keep some, .co.uk, .us, and .ca would be included but where do we draw the line? .Ru may not be to popular now but what if we get a lot of people from former Soviet-bloc / Russia in who want to deal in these names?
.De (again) - we see these sales every week with impressive figures but that section doesn't have much activity (this tells me there isn't a lot of domainer to domainer sales).
Some of these are limited to country residents while others are open. When one goes from restricted to open, shall we see a new section for them?
(BTW - this is not really going off topic - this is dealing with a section notorious for having threads moved into them).
Some of these sections have cobwebs on them and some vermin living in the cupboards. If someone lists a line of .jp domains for sale, IMO it should be in the .jp section - I have a feeling not many people sit and browse from forum to forum, most probably click on the "unread posts" link near the top of their screen (so it would still get exposure) plus it would be readily available for those who are looking for that specific ccTLD.
I know if I had some money and started to invest heavily in .us domains - I'd stop first in the .us section, not in the general areas.
