Good point ... so we need to DNS each project name individually ... But, again in favor of doing the .net ... we're looking at migrating DNS to bind-dlz ... the .org domain can't be done that way easily, do to the combination of dynamic/static host names (all the mirrors are dynamically generated) ... moving projects to .net would allow us to leave the dns records in the database ... Counter to that, of course, is that we could extend the mirror/dns script to dump the projects at the same time ... I'm flexible either way ... one benefit to .net is we could make www.postgresql.net == gborg.postgresql.org, since someone mentioned drop'ng the gborg name altogether ... again, gborg.postgresql.org would have a redirect to www.postgresql.net ... ---- Marc G.
