Me and some friends have been discussing the idea and awesomeness of having a .app TLD . After doing some ( very ) preliminary research we decided that it might be worth pursuing as a project on Kickstarter. First we thought we would ask how many others felt this way, how much you would pay and if you would contribute to a kickstarter project.
Given our early research ( read: limited knowledge ). We would love it if people could give some insight into the process of applying for and running a TLD.
We know this is a very speculative idea, but think it's well worth doing for the tech community.
