see com.nl com.nl fits in the ccTLD method
.co.nl is old news, and subdomaining, not important.
Not few people or companies yet registered on com.nl
What role will it play, and what should old ikweethetniet.nl 's go when ikweethetniet.com.nl was already registered and used by someone else?

Dear JP Blankert,
COM.NL has exactly the same technical status as CO.NL: it is a SUB domain...
The only difference is that co.nl is organised in a more professional way (IMHO) with a large distribution network and hence more accepted.
CO.NL started up about 13 months ago, COM.NL about 3 months ago.
DomainNews.nl never posted about COM.NL, ICANN has nothing to do with it as it is a sub domain (just as co.nl) and Names Beyond does not sell com.nl names....
This being said, i do think that a sub domain like co.nl (or com.nl for that matter) has a value. Especially since NL is going towards 3.7 Mln registrations. But in every way keep in mind that these are both sub domains!
