The .com priority window makes the .web launch a fairly specific decision for existing holders: whether any names already in the portfolio are worth registering in another extension.
Verisign published the schedule on November 11 after ICANN approved the launch plan, and several registrars are already onboarding for it.
Pricing wasn't included in the announcement.
If you hold several .com names, which, if any, would make your .web shortlist?
