### D ecosystem services
While we were waiting for everyone to arrive, I gave an update
on the status of our plans to bring all of the ecosystem
services under our control. At that point, I had received
information on the resource requirements of services maintained
by Vladimir Panteleev (the D forums, D wiki, and more), Jan
Knepper (the main dlang.org site, the newsgroup server, the D
blog), and Petar Kirov (run.dlang.io and tour.dlang.io). I also
had received affirmative responses from those three to my
invitation to join our next server meeting. Since that time, I
have also received the same from Sönke Ludwig (code.dlang.org).
Throughout February, I had received advice from different
people about which name registrar we should sign up with. At
the meeting, everyone agreed I should just pick one and be done
with it. I have since signed up with Namecheap. Now I'm waiting
for the owner of dlang.io to get back to me about handing it
over to us (he brought it up in an email to me back in
January). Walter has always maintained dlang.org, and he will
transfer it to our new account in the future.
BTW, if the foundation ever wants to take https://dla.ng off of
my hands, please feel free to reach out and we could arrange
something — I’d be happy to transfer the domain over. Only main
thing is finding a registrar that supports the .ng domain, I’m
not sure that Namecheap supports them.
