I also note that Jon Postel wants to see .TV and .TM removed from the root zone, but NSI/NSF prevented that. Perhaps the other RSCs around the world should honor the IANA request.
I'd be particularly interested in knowing the WWTLD's position on this. Do we follow IANA directive and remove .TV, .TM or do we go with NSI polict and leave them there.

The IANA is not in the business of deciding what is and what is not a country.
.FX is the country code for Metropolitan France. This is not a country. Neither is Tuvala any more.
