I think we should also take a look at each of that domain individually. Is it usable? Is it grows? Does the community need it? For example, SU grows fast (even it costs $100 per year now), need by community and usable because of many people associate themselves with ex-USSR, and many companies working in ex-USSR market. So this community need it, as like as European people need EU domain (that also not in ISO3166). (of course, I'm protecting my cool e-mail too ;) ) -- WBR, Max Tulyev (MT6561-RIPE, 2:463/253 at FIDO)
