http://www.iana.org/gtld/gtld.htm is probably the best info google almost turned up. (google gave more hits to foreign registrars with irrelevant pages for some reason.)

In my early days in the computer biz, I recall that the .org doman was at one time reserved for non-profits but was relaxed later on - else I couldn't have gotten sund.org.

As far as I know, Com is for commercial site, .net is that same.  .org
is usually an organization that is does not make a profit but can.
Anyone know where to find out about these rules?  Anyone willing to put
in the google time?

Are there actual rules regarding registering .edu and .org domains? Suppose someone teaches music lessons at their own "school." It's obviously for-profit. Which type of domain should they register? Should they stick with .com?
