I've been waiting forever to buy a .ing domain from Google as my last name ends in those letters. I literally want to give them my money and they won't let me. I did end up purchasing a .ng domain for my personal website, but I'm not super keen on having it tied to the country of Nigeria.

How often does Google release these new domains? I know that .ing was delegated to them in 2014... why are they allowed to control these domains if they never release them?
