== Domain names ==

* In the hands of Guillaume.
* Simon contacted the registrant and convinced him to transfer it to us – we are covering the cost.
=== Country top level domain name registrations ===
[https://www.gandi.net/ Gandi] is sponsoring us.
OSMF has recently purchased country domain names with reasonable prices:
* Greece
* Singapore
* Peru
* Philippines
<u>Examples of expensive domain names</u>
* Bulgaria
* Egypt (~500 USD)
<u>Budget questions</u>
* [[Licensing_Working_Group|LWG]] or [[Operations_Working_Group|OWG]] budget?
* How much does the board want to budget for country domain registration?
* Register more middle priced ones?
<u>Points mentioned during discussion</u>
* For a lot of countries you cannot register a top level domain, unless you have an entity registered in that country.
* Maybe register in countries where OSM has presence.
'''Action item:''' Simon to create a spreadsheet of top level country domains with info about whether registered by OSMF or not.

=== Any interest in trying out [
'''BBB advantages'''
