Is this the first time we've ever used *.fedoracommunity.org? I've
never seen it used before...
There's plenty of "locale" domains, like
http://id.fedoracommunity.org/, but I don't know of cases where we've
used it for other things. The guidelines page clearly indicate that
that was the intention though.
Also, if we're going to use that, probably
live.fedoracommunity.org
makes more sense.
Yeah.
And we've previously done custom domains for stuff, for example:
.net:
fedoraloves.net
Python:
fedoralovespython.org
Yeah, I'm not particularly fond of these (although
fedoraloves.net is
cute, even if the twisted use of .net kind of pains my 1990s sysadmin
heart).
Get Fedora:
getfedora.org (this one was actually a pretty painful
change...)
Yeah, this wasn't really mean to be a _change_ but a focused "download
brochure" site.
Custom domains are not specifically disallowed either, but a
trademark
license from Red Hat is required. Alternatively, Red Hat/Fedora could
purchase the domain for the use.
Yes, that's all true.
If it is possible, we should get fedorastreams.live and/or
fedoralive.stream
If this is really going to help success, I won't -1 it, but there's a
little bit of a chicken and egg problem — if we do something like this,
I'd like it to be for something we feel pretty confident is going to be
around and self-sustaining in a year or two.
