Well, I for one am willing to take 48 hours of silence == no objections == consensus == permission, so let's do it! And thanks again, Cole, for your generous offer. P.S. if you could supply us (me, Ben, Bruce) offline with contact info, that would be great.

It probably makes sense to have me as admin and billing, what do y'all want to do about technical and owner? Technical would normally go to the DNS technical contact role at DynDNS. As far as the owner goes... maybe keep that with Bruce, since he's been the owner all along? I'd say put it with you, Cole, but it would be nice to have an alternate contact in case you're on vacation or something. -- Ben ___ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org

I seem to recall having to jump through all sorts of hoops to get free of them. No surprise. It would probably be best if I'm not any of those for the time being. Well, so much for my original suggestion. :) Otherwise I would recommend those be role addresses at the gnhlug.org domain No problem for the email addresses, but they want mailing and phone contact info, too. It's generally a good idea to make those valid, in case something goes wrong with the technical stuff. And given our nebulous legal status in the first place, I do think it would be best to have as much of a claim to ownership as possible. If nobody else wants it and people are okay with the idea, I'd be willing to take on the designated owner role. -- Ben ___ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org

Adding the -org list, since this transcends technical stuff. On 8/20/06, Bruce Dawson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It expires on 10 Sept. Do we want to move it to a different registrar? Almost certainly. If we do want to move it, who to? FWIW, I've used DomainMonger for the past few years with no complaints. $17/year with discounts for multiple years. OMMV (Our Mileage May Vary). If we don't want to move it, who wants to pay for it ($35/yr)? Even if we do move it, who wants to pay for it?I'm willing to chip in, but should we pass a hat at the meetings or something like that?

The only reason I could think of not to have me do it is if somebody has the idea of moving the domain name to a particular registrar that's particularly well aligned with F/OSS philosophies. In that scenario, if that registrar were reasonably priced, it might be nice to move it there just to support them. Barring that, I can't think of anything. -- Cole Tuininga [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.code-energy.com/ ___ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org
