[hackers] deanspace.org vs .net

2003-07-24 Thread Goldberg, Joseph
I see that Ping registered deanspace.org, but shouldn't we register deanspace.net as well, if for no other reason than to point it to .org (or vice versa)? Of course this is pending the voting results, but exit polls show deanspace is commanding a strong lead. Joe

[hackers] How about deancountry.com?

2003-07-24 Thread Shannon Little
The name is available and I posted on the forum poll as to why I think it would be a good choice. People tend to associate web sites with .com most of all (especially the average web user) and it might be better to go for something with a .com domain. Just my two cents.

Neither a4d, h4d (however you expand that), nor dfa are commercial; we don't *belong* in .com -- and there might be legal ramifications. Attorney: But you registered your domain name in the .com region, a region reserved for commercial entities. You dod realize that this was the implication

We should have .com, .net, and .org if all 3 are available. Most people will type .com, or if they simply type 'deanspace' in their browser it will usually automatically resolve it as www.deanspace.com. On Thursday, July 24, 2003, at 01:36 PM, CMR wrote: On Thu, Jul 24, 2003 at 09:58:03AM

Speaking of maps - I've been working on a quick sample map with interactivity associated with it. You'll need to download the Adobe SVG plugin (http://www.adobe.com/svg/viewer/install/beta.html) (I'll set it up later so that this could be done automatically), and then open up from my own site:

I am not too concerned about not having deanspace.com. The only thing we would establish on the domain would be a site for techies. Techies can be entrusted to find their way to the right domain Although it would be nice to have all 3. Or we could solve the problem by buying deaanspace.net

The theme simpledean is fixed and is available at http://www.siprelle.com/simpledean.tar.gz which is the same filename as the old one, but it's the new one. :) The poll issue has been fixed along with a number of other niggly things. I now understand a lot better how themes come together.

From what I have seen none of the three themes properly include the footer. This is necessary for sites which would like to use a nonstandard footer (of course the defualt ones will have a creative commons logo and a disclaimer). For example the SourceFogre sandbox includes a SourceForge icon
