New top-level domains coming

[John.Abreau-3flU0AWMlV4AvxtiuMwx3w at public.gmane.org (John.Abreau-3flU0AWMlV4AvxtiuMwx3w at public.gmane.org)]

If your DNS is properly configured, you shouldn't have to
update anything.  Your DNS server should already know
where the root nameservers are, and any new top-level
domain will be added to the root nameservers, at which
point your DNS server will be able to find them.

If your DNS server is using an alternate set of root
nameservers, then it's up to whoever provides those
alternate root nameservers to keep their servers in
sync. But there's nothing you need to do on your end.

Subject: New top-level domains coming

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has
announced more progress toward the issuance of Generic Top-Level Domain
name (gTLD) domains. These new top-level domains will give applicants
the chance to have a corporate trademark or community name as the _last_
item in an Internet address: for example, instead of sears.com or
fsf.org, the new gTLD program would allow addresses such as sales.sears
or emacs.fsf.

Details are at
http://www.icann.com/en/announcements/announcement-04oct09-en.htm .

My question: what will I have to update to accomodate this change?

Bill
