Revision as of 19:27, 7 January 2008

So, how come this SIG's site is in a .com domain instead of .org or .org.uk? Does it purport to be a commercial entity? (That's a pet peeve of mine... see my Domain Hall of Shame page.) DanTheWebmaster 11:25, 23 Jun 2007 (PDT)


Because the Sec Secretary at the time, Pete Baimbridge, set it up that way. It's a common practice in the UK; .org and .org.uk are costlier and I think .org.uk requires the registrant to jump through hoops to prove their organisational status. Nothing to get worked up about - it's no worse than all those American .coms who really ought to be .co.us! :-) Andyfarrell 03:58, 29 Jun 2007 (PDT)
Your information doesn't seem to be current; I checked at GoDaddy, and over there .org domains were $8.99, while .com domains were $8.95... a four cent difference. .org.uk domains were $9.99, an extra dollar, but it didn't seem like there were any special hoops to jump through to get one. .info domains were cheapest, on sale for 99 cents. .us domains were $5.99. .co.us is reserved for the state of Colorado (two letter codes within .us are state codes). Since direct registrations at the second level in .us were made available a few years ago, the subdivided subdomains there aren't much used. DanTheWebmaster 19:32, 29 Jun 2007 (PDT)
Fair enough! :-) But my point about American .coms was that many people have in turn a pet peeve about the USA appropriating top level domains like .mil, .gov as automatically meaning the USA, and in turn many cases of .com being used in the same way.
