To Whom It May Concern: How does a company or individual "own" the .biz, .info or similar URL suffix? Is it possible to register a new one? If so, at what cost? And do you allow someone to then own and profit from it? Thank you, Tom Thorne __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!

They don't as such.

The documents linked at http://www.icann.org/tlds/stld-apps-19mar04/stld-public-comments.htm should help you get started on understanding how all of this works.
Dear Thomas, The Address Policy mailinglist deals with IP addressing policy questions not domain names. IP addresses are numeric addresses used by devices connected to the Internet. For a list of ICANN acredited registrars for domain names please refer to http://www.internic.net/ Best Regards, Hans Petter Holen Address Policy gw Chair. Thomas Thorne wrote:
