*Public Comment: Proposed .PRO Renewal Registry
Agreement*<http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-09mar10-en.htm>
The proposed renewal of the .PRO registry agreement is posted for public
comment. The .PRO TLD was approved during the 2000 proof-of-concept round of
new gTLDs and its original agreement is due to expire on 27 May 2010. The
proposed .PRO renewal agreement is fundamentally the same as what was
negotiated and approved for .BIZ, also an unsponsored/restricted gTLD, in
2006.
