Apparently you've never seen www.nunames.nu? It made quite a lot of news when
it came out.
This has been going on for quite a while, it's odd that you should bring it up
now. You might also want to check out http://www.nic.cc. I'm sure a host of
others will be springing up in no time.
BTW I happen to think those .to forwarder domains are ultra cool, I found
http://easy.to/remember the other day and I thought it was an exteremely good
idea...

By "legit" do you mean its purpose is to operate a business or other
entity organized within the Kingdom of Tonga?
