  Re: `wikibase.org`, adding it as a non-canonical redirection to catch 
confusion from those that manually type URLs is fine, but we should make sure 
everyone is clear on which domainname is canonical for this project (I assume 
`https://wikiba.se/`) and make sure that's the only one that's published, 
promoted, and used for links we control and such.  It's an important notion 
that one name is canonical!
  
  Re: the HSTS/HTTPS stuff in 
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/500711 :
  
  - It's policy for canonical domains we support here, so there's no real 
debate about whether we'll end up with full-value HSTS and the HTTP->HTTPS 
redirect.
  - But we don't need this separate patch at the apache level; we'll handle it 
in VCL with the same code that handles the other canonical project domains.
  
  Re: handing off registration - I really think we should stop touching this 
whole project until this gets resolved, which means stalling on the above 
HSTS/HTTPS work and on the switch of IPs.
  
  This is a policy issue as well, which we've tried to explain politely more 
than once in this thread, but if it's going to end up being a blocker there's 
no point expending further effort on this until they figure out what direction 
they want to go.  I think the original statement way back from @Faidon was that 
it was a "very strong preference" that we get ownership transfer, but in fact 
we'd already made the declaration that it's a policy requirement about a week 
before that in 
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/HTTPS#For_the_Foundation's_canonical_domainnames
 , and honestly I really don't want to wade into the mess of having an 
exception to those rules during all the future improvements we have coming at 
the DNS and HTTPS layers.  Even just applying strong HSTS with ownership issues 
seems irresponsible of us at best, as the current hosting WMDE has it on lacks 
HTTPS entirely.
