Yes, may as well have both, but make one of them a site-wide redirect to the other (I'd recommend spreadubuntu.com -> spread.ubuntu.com). > And to the broad public: > Are we all happy with marketing.ubuntu.com?

What's the use case, and why is it needed? If it's about storing resources, think about a few other methods: 1) Use the wiki! If we keep rationalising massive shifts out of the wiki because it's big/scary/complicated/world-write, then we won't be able to set norms and standards for using the wiki, and we'll eventually kill off its value. 2) Use Spread Ubuntu for distribution *and* development - involve your downstream users in content creation by making an easy step within the context of Spread Ubuntu. 3) You're already considering using version control for development and storage of content - point to that when you need to, and avoid all of the subdomain damage. It's already pretty scary that we have www/help/docs/wiki subdomains, none of which are doing the other any favours when it comes to interlinking or raising our Google juice. Let's try not to let this happen again. - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2007: Sydney, Australia http://lca2007.linux.org.au/ "I can't imagine anyone telling Emma Bunton to shut up.
