Hello,
first answer to all the proposals made about the final domain name, as
explained in my other message I'll catch up in the next 24/36
hours.
I had already checked the rule.(org, com, ....) domains and found them
reserved.
My proposal is www.rule-project.org because:
we are an organization
worldrule and similar may be misleading
as stated in the web page and original announcement,
developing linux related sw is the first part of the
*project*, and then comes the "lobby/support/install"
part. In other words, I was searching some domain name that
makes evident that we are not *only* developing some other
Linux related thing (***), but also that we have something very
defined and important to do with it as soon as it's ready
(***) which, of course, it's still enough reason to do it, since it's
fun, challenging, and useful: RULE will be different things to
different people, but all worthwhile.
Of course, nothing prevents us from reserving also linux-rule and
similar and make them all point to the same master domain.
Must go the office now. See you tonight.
Ciao,
Marco Fioretti
