The BBC is reporting that domain registration will be changing next year.

The .co landgrab could be one of the last before ICANN overhauls the way net addresses are assigned.

Next year the body is due to open up the system so that companies and individuals can register any name they want.

I haven't heard anything about a change—is the BBC correct, and if so, what are the details?
