There are new domain suffix rules so if LibreOffice could have a .libro
domain suffix, but it is very expensive. $185,000.

Maybe one day it would be lower costing, like .com or .org.
I wonder which country has the .lo domain suffix? It would be
interesting to have that suffix since LO is one of the abbreviations for
LibreOffice.
The article stated it took 6 years to decide this new rule[s]. There
are over 300 domain suffixes, with the bulk being country codes. The
article stated that suffixes like .apple, .ipad, .lego and other
business or product names could be used, as long as there is not
trademark or copyright infringement. .bank and .hotel could be used for
those type of businesses. Well after the powers-that-be approved .xxx
for a domain suffix, this move to business and company name suffixes was
the next step.
So what do you think? Would it be a great marketing "tool" to have a
LibreOffice domain suffix? I know that .TV is being used for marketing
and that domain is for a small island government. I wonder which
country uses .lo and would registration of that .lo suffix would be
possible at all.
