HI Tim, Le 2011-12-17 23:44, webmaster for Kracked Press Productions a écrit : Would TDF want to start looking at domains that have abbreviations that could be associated with TDF/LO? DocumentFoundation.com; .org; .net; .xx (Country codes) LibreOffice.com; .org; .net; .xx (Country codes) All other name variants (Libre.xx; LibreOffice-NA.US; LibreOfficeSuite etc.), not really, unless a specific domain name is adopted as important. For example LibOCon.com;org were bought for LibreOffice conference sites, but no need for any other suffix versions are necessary. There are just too many permutations and quite frankly, no need to buy these. Usually, where country codes are involved, the respective countries (most) specify that you must be a resident of that particular country to own the country code domain. With projects such as these, usually, the project will want to protect its brand by acquiring the TLD domains and then the country code versions when it can afford to do so. Where a project has a strong membership, members will purchase the various country code versions on their own and promise to donate these once the project has the legal entity, funds and resources to hold these country versions. Which is what some of us have done. For example, I am holding the DocumentFoundation.ca and LibreOffice.ca for the TDF till they request the transfer to their name, and, I have expressed publicly that I will transfer these when requested. I have never had any problems with transferring domains back to projects. As for redirection, the TDF will usually let holders of these domains know of their DNS coordinates to use for these domains. Failing this, a simple redirection is fine. As usual, and, as caveat, the owner of the country domain assumes all liability of the content in all cases of redirection.

Re: [libreoffice-website] LibreOffice.XX some sites do not work
Hello, actually, there are several topics: - Technically, best is indeed if people enter our DNS servers, so we have full control of the domain name, in case the domain names are for the official LO or TDF pages (like in countries where we cannot legally register the name as we are no residents there). - Independent whether people forward to our pages or connect our DNS, they could - based on the jurisdiction of their country - be held liable for the contents, which is something they should keep in mind. - Legally, we need to at least have an overview who registers a LO domain name. We are legally required to protect our trademark. Although I don't want to put too many limitations on people, legally we have to acknowledge the name use and grant them a license, in case our trademark policiy doesn't already do so. In a nutshell: I agree that some detailed page with information on that topic would be helpful. Right now, we only have the trademark policy, which is rather generic.

I wanted it to look like a LibreOffice information site, but not one of the official sites. It is a project site that helps promote LO and the things that complement it. At that time, I did not see any page/text with suggested domain naming styles that someone like me could use to create their own web site that promotes LibreOffice and open-source. It would be nice to see one written out. Then, people will not make the mistake of making their domain be confused with one of the official LO sites. If I registered LibreOffice.info, then it would be too close to the official looking domains of LO. Adding the dash after LO was may way to stop that confusion, but still make it clear that the site was about LO. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-website] LibreOffice.XX some sites do not work
How many registration 2-digit country codes do we need? One for every country or language that LO supports? One for every country that has a group large enough to support its own 2-digit code? Is there any rulings on who gets to have a LibreOffice.xx domain? How far are we willing to go? LibreOffice.TV [.tv is actually an island nation's 2-digit code where - last time I knew - half of the money raised for registration goes to funding education and the other half goes to the company who got the contract to be the technical managers the .tv domain registrations] LibreOffice.US [is used?] LibreOffice.CA LibreOffice.GB LibreOffice.ZA LibreOffice.org.CA LibreOffice.com.CA LibreOffice.net.CA etc., etc. Actually we could buy the domain of LibreOffice.SUITE, if we had the big money needed to create such a domain name suffix. It was opened up this past year for you to have/create new domain suffixes as long as you paid the big fees. I do hope that no one decides to buy LibreOffice.XXX, which is a legal one, but that suffix was founded for the pron industry, but not truly limited to that. But seriously, there should be a published statement on what is the best policy on who should register a domain of LibreOffice.xx. I created LibreOffice-NA.US to mean a LibreOffice site based in North America and specifically in the USA. Also, adding the -NA after LibreOffice, I thought it could indicate that there is a project for LibreOffice with NA/North-America in its name. Or something like that. Maybe there could be LibreOffice-CA.?? for Central America project with a country 2-digit code for Panama or other country in Central America. We could use a guideline for domain naming. We can not enforce it, since anyone can register a domain that is not taken yet. But if we had a guideline ruling, it could be published somewhere, where is is easy to find. Then people could have some tips on what is the best ways to name a LibreOffice domain, or at least one that looks more professional and understandable to what it is to represent. pt.LibreOffice.org or LibreOffice.pt as Portuguese language version of the official LO web site. Then LibreOffice-HI.pt as a LibreOffice project with Portuguese as its default language , or like .us would be American/USA English as its default language or project location. It would be more professional for LibreOffice to publish such a guideline. It would make sense to do so. Also, if TDF/LO had the cash to do so, they should register most of the popular domain suffixes and country codes like .com, .net, .us, .ca, .info, .mobi, .me, .co, .biz, .asia, .tv, and so forth, and so forth. .tv cost about $40 a year, where .asia is about $20. .info is right now on sale for $2 instead of $12 per year. .info might be good. LibreOffice.Info as a web URL for information about LibreOffice. .org was originally for not-for-profit organizations or groups. Well, that is my 20 cents worth, instead of just 2 cents.

They are not working. Maybe the DNS are wrong? Also, do we not own the LibreOffice.fr site? There are Google ads on the front page and footer. It doesn't look like a site that is run by the TDF. In fact it almost looks like LibreOffice is endorsing some PDF software which I doubt we are doing. Someone should look into this. All of the other NL LibreOffice.NL sites should be checked to see if they land on the appropriate pages. LibreOffice.ca is NOT WORKING LibreOffice.us is NOT WORKING LibreOffice.de is OK LibreOffice.es is OK LibreOffice.it is OK LibreOffice.jp is NOT WORKING LibreOffice.pt is NOT WORKING LibreOffice.br is NOT WORKING Cheers, Marc -- Marc Paré m...@marcpare.com http://www.parEntreprise.com parEntreprise.com Supports OpenDocument Formats (ODF) parEntreprise.com Supports http://www.LibreOffice.org -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+help@global.**libreoffice.orgwebsite%2bh...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/**get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-** unsubscribe/http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.**documentfoundation.org/** Netiquettehttp://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.**libreoffice.org/global/**website/http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems?
