Afaik all 2-letter TLDs are ccTLDs, which means they must be a country code of some country and are managed by it. There's no country with "os" yet, so to make the TLD available one would need to found a new country first!


Let's call it the Oasis of Servers. I guess we could find an old oil platform or something...


I've been of the opinion for a while now that they should just go ahead and make all 26^2 two letter tlds available. Would be neat.


If they did that, everyone would worry about registering all the domains with a Levenshtein distance of 1 from theirs, in case of typos.


Oh, thanks for the clarification! I didn't thought about this.
