1.1 ICANN does not currently maintain a list of possible operational and rendering problems. We encourage applicants to consult with relevant experts regarding any potential rendering or operational problems with applied-for gTLDs. One external reference with examples of rendering issues http://stupid.domain.name/node/683.

2. BEST PRACTICE SUGGESTIONS:

2.2 If acronyms are used, applicants should spell out the first instance, even if the acronyms represent a common term/product/service.
