digitalmars.D.announce - dlang.io subdomains

reply Seb <seb wilzba.ch> writes:
Hey all,

I was quite astonished that the dlang.io domain was still 
available.

I imagine it could be used to host non-official user projects and 
give them a fancy name.

FYI the main website dlang.io currently redirects to dlang.org, 
but if anyone has a better use case for it - let me know!

So if anyone is interested in this offer for a subdomain (e.g. 
your-awesome-project.dlang.io), just ping me (seb [at] wilzba 
[dot] ch) - I am more then happy to help you ;-)

dub.pm is also still available and I would buy it if I had 
12€/year. Would still be cool having dub there because "pm" 
already sounds like package manager :D

AFAIK those three letter domains are reserved to cities etc. - at 
least I get the following error and my tech support told me that 
I can't register it because it is reserved. Has someone else had 
more luck?

.pm is restricted to residents of the european economic area. If 
you are in there try getting it on https://www.gandi.net/, it 
says its available there.

Also you should be able to register any free domain name which 
has >= 3 characters, you dont need to be a city or something for 
that

Wow you were right - it really worked with Gandi ... weird.
I really love D - so here's my sponsorship for the dub.pm :) :)

Let's move forward with this issue at dub's issue tracker?

A few off that make sense to be reserved:

* code.dlang.io: code.dlang.org
* forum.dlang.io: forum.dlang.org
* (etc)

* science.dlang.io: dlangscience.github.io/
* derelict.dlang.io: github.com/DerelictOrg
* vibe.dlang.io: vibed.org (maybe web.dlang.io, but perhaps 
that's overstepping some bounds?)

Added them all as URL redirects (except web) - thanks :)

In case I should add 'A'/'CNAME' records or other domains, let me 
know.
