On another housekeeping issue, I've been keeping the compiz-fusion domains registered. I've no problems with that, but it would be good to decide which ones we wish to keep registered and for how long. I believe the compiz- fusion.org is the only one directly used although I have the others re- directing to it. Personally I think that we should keep compiz-fusion.org for a few more years and let the others expire.
