AFNIC Launch Public Consultation on Opening .FR to EU

AFNIC, which runs the .fr cctld, has opened a public consultation on the future of .fr from now until September 11th 2010.

The consultation is in the form of a questionnaire covering various aspects of .fr domain name policy on the registration process and how this might be changed to deal with an opening up to all European Union residents.

Under the current proposed policy, for example, they will still require an admin contact with an address in France.

Full details of the consultation – including the editable PDF for the questionnaire are available on the AFNIC site
