auDA is seeking community feedback on some proposed additions to the Reserved Names List.
At its June 2019 meeting the auDA Board accepted a proposal from Australia's Digital Transformation Agency (DTA) to reserve the following names at the .au 2nd level:
- All domain names at the second level of .au that match a name in gov.au in the form <name>gov.au.
For example: ato.gov.au exists in gov.au, and the Board has reserved atogov.au .
