So, would that be Manchester NH, Manchester, MA or one of the other
Manchesters?
boston.us.openguides.org
vienna.at.openguides.org
and so on.
Worldwide sites like
engineer.openguides.org could stay.
Whether we want to enforce existing guides to switch over I don't know,
but we should at least put in redirects.
Secondly, we were talking about improvements to the DNS management
recently. Various solutions were mentioned and no conclusions were
reached, so I'm going to offer mine here and see if we can get to a
conclusion.
Currently
openguides.org is associated with Earle's personal account
with
gandi.net. I suggest that we get an Openguides-specific account
with someone (them, or Black Cat Networks - my employer, I know we can
do this, for example). That would give us a web-based update interface
to which nominated individuals could have access.
We then have a wiki page that documents the DNS entries, who requested
them, when they were added, who by, etc etc, to keep track of things.
It's not a technically neat solution but is very easy to implement and
provides a more stable DNS platform than something custom would (for
example zone files in SVN were mentioned).
Comments welcomed for these two matters.
Regards,
Dominic.
