Every application is still in ICANN's first stage, pre-evaluation processing. The final list of names comes out on 17 November 2026. This name is in contention set 2: several applicants want it, or names close to it.

When it could go live: ICANN has not given a date. At the 2012 round's pace, the first new endings would go live around Feb 2028 and half of them by around Sep 2029. How this is worked out
