 | | Network Working Group J. Postel Request for Comments: 920 J. Reynolds ISI October 1984 Domain Requirements Status of this Memo This memo is a policy statement on the requirements of establishing a new domain in the ARPA-Internet and the DARPA research community. |
 | | Postel & Reynolds [Page 1] RFC 920 October 1984 Domain Requirements General Purpose Domains While the initial domain name "ARPA" arises from the history of the development of this system and environment, in the future most of the top level names will be very general categories like "government", "education", or "commercial". |
 | | Postel & Reynolds [Page 2] RFC 920 October 1984 Domain Requirements Multiorganizations A multiorganization may be a top level domain if it is large, and is composed of other organizations; particularly if the multiorganization can not be easily classified into one of the categories and is international in scope. |
