What is .jm?
A little context on Jamaica: the capital is Kingston, languages include English and Jamaican Patois, the currency is the Jamaican dollar (JMD) and the international dialing code is +1876.
IANA lists University of West Indies as the manager of .jm, with an address in Jamaica. ccTLD managers set their own policies — who can register, which second-level names exist, pricing to registrars — so those rules differ from country to country.
On the technical side, .jm is served by 4 authoritative name servers, 2 of them reachable over IPv6. There is no DS record for .jm in the root zone, which means the TLD is not DNSSEC-signed at the top level.
