<DIV>Bonjour Anne,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As Patrick suggest, we need simplicity.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Instead of adding a level to the names, maybe that the answer would be to keep «isoc.org» for «any naming that does not define a chapter».</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In other words, let the technology solve the problem, not the names (-;)]~</DIV>

This is in itself a show stopper. If ISOC started<BR>defining "chapitre", "capítulo", "sezione", etc as DNS aliases, it would<BR>make the whole thing even more complicated and less attractive.<BR><BR>We need simplicity. A 3rd level domain seems to be what most people<BR>want. The special case of Geneva needs attention, of course, but this<BR>does not look like a impossible or even difficult task, especially since<BR>it is mostly used internally. If we can provide advice and help, please<BR>let us know.<BR><BR>As the original proponent of the initiative, I of course volunteer to<BR>help in a WG.<BR><BR>Patrick<BR><BR>-- <BR>Patrick Vande Walle<BR>Check my blog at <A href="http://patrick.vande/">http://patrick.vande</A>-walle.eu<BR>Jabber me at patrick@vande-walle.eu<BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Chapter-delegates mailing list<BR>Chapter-delegates@elists.isoc.org<BR><A href="http://elists.isoc.org/mailman/listinfo/chapter">http://elists.isoc.org/mailman/listinfo/chapter</A>-delegates<BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
