<nettime> What do you think about .art? |
Hi There is a limited opportunity to apply for dotART domain name by April 12. Is there any inking of support ? Or do people think that no artist would like to have a .art domain? dotArt(s), in plural though, has been proposed once in 1997 before ICANN was set up the process for adding TLDs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IAHC#Proposed_TLDs). The entity applying for it should have at least 185,000 USD for the application fee and some money raised for operating the registry for 3-5 years. There might be many applicants and I would hate to see .art go into the wrong hands (the ones with deepest pockets that would win it in the auction phase). Is anyone here interested in making a pledge for the cause?
