Hello, I have a question or better need a clarification about the report of the DNS working group (on the 14 Ripe meeting in Prag, 25-27.1.1993) One of the topics was the "propper" top-level domain of multinational organizations, like European Parliament. (case of the day) The suggestions were: .org: rejected because it is not a North American organization. My questions are the following: Is there anywhere mentioned that .org top-level domain is only for North America organisations? Or does this rejection have any other reasons? The solution choosen (again for the European Parliament) was using the country top level domain and have the name reserved in every (member?) country. This solution implies for me that any European Institution (which has a similiar status like the European Parliament) should follow that roule (or would it be acceptable that other institutions would achieve different solutions? I hope so,because I hate changing names :-)) Michael Fendt ________________________________________________________________________________ Michael Fendt ESO (European Southern Observatory) Karl-Schwarzschildstr. 2 D-8046 Garching Germany Tel: +49 89 32006 441 Fax: +49 89 32023 62 email: mfendt@eso.org
